FridgeFreezer Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Well there's ones with an LCD screen built in that you can plug a reversing camera into, got one for the ambulance and will probably fit one to the 109 as neither can make use of a regular rear-view mirror.

Snagger Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I have a late RRC rear view mirror (with map lights and auto-dimming) in my 109 and it gives a wider field of view, wider than the three windows in the back end (I can keep an eye on the kids easily with it).

bodumatau Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 lights and dim and electronic I don't need, just a wider field of view i think mine was designed only to look out a small back door with a spare tyre mounted on it, and even that would be too big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Rattler Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Don't have one, never have with all my landy's even the disco's I had the int mirrors got ripped off the screen as soon as I bought them, it gives you more view with the front screen and I am not too fussed what's behind me I have door mirrors for that only interested what's in front of me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to know what is behind so I can read the road situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eightpot Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Range Rover classic mirrors give a full width rear view - you can pop the mirror head off the ball mount and swap them onto a Defender mirror arm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 All I can ever see in my rear view mirror at night is the reflection of what is coming towards me at the front. Its weird and as a result I have learnt to cope with the wing mirrors only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eightpot Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I've used MRC3075 which is the 2 door/early 4 door type. it may be possible to use a later mirror if the swivel ball is the same size, sounds like others have had success. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
