Now Mirrors. These have fully adjustable lens (unlike Bullet Mirrors) meaning you can see out. Ultra light and is not a Universal fit (unlike others). Autofashion sell M3 style in GRP for the same price. Their are different ways to fit these (well 2 that I can think of) The first is just bond the lower edge onto the door skin and then bond the door frame section to the door frame. I fitted these to my GFs Mini with epoxy bond on the door frame and the door skin, together with alloy bolts thru the door skin, with nyloc nuts as well. This just makes it harder to steal (I live in a rough area). FULLY adjustable lens as stated.

Mirrors are £120 pair plus postage. You can fit them with rivets I suppose :lol: Epoxy resisn is a two part bonding agent, Bit like superglue. Just go to your local B&Q or similar and have a look around.

Single skin fitted to metal frame. Mk3 frame I gather. Cant see why not, never done it my self but............A CF Boot Skin in either Mk1, Mk3 or Smoothy is £65.00 plus postage.

I'll get round to it one day :lol:
