Is there anyone on here thats able to fabric a pair of the brackets that go on the bottom of the mirror to secure to your car? Or has any one got a pair spare?
Hope this makes sence, just that i've bought a cheap pair of these mirrors to do something a tad different with but they was cheap because they didnt have the bracket.
Any help would be great.
Cheers

Thing is there not going to be mounted on the outside of the car as mirrors, to long winded to explain, but if it works will share with you all.
So need the brackets really.
But good advise thou bungle. :(

Looking at that pic, they are just bolted from the inside of the door/wing and don't have brackets. You have to drill the holes in the door/wing.

Those mirrors are complete mate, the only reasons you use the little plinth thing that you can get for them are to fit them to the original door holes and lift them up to where you can see them. If you're not mounting them outside the car then why do you need them?

And if you really want them, just buy some. They aren't expensive and you'll come accross a lot less chavvy that way! :wink: :( :(

Or you could buy some real gauge pods. :wink:

Thing is they should have a bracket, i know as this is the second pair ive owned.
I didnt realise you could buy the brackets on there own, have looked, but cant of looked in the right place.

And Dan your wrong there not going to be gauge pods!

Speakers?

By the way,

Minispares M90999 for the right hand side.
Minispares M90997 for the left hand side.

That's to replace plastic mirrors on late doors (1980 - 2000) and is a black plastic plinth.

Minispares CZH3521.

That's a kit for both sides for early doors (1970 - 1980) fitted with chrome mirrors and is a chrome plinth.

Are you really vain and just want mirrors in your car to look at yourself?

Just check the legality of that matey!

I think they are only allowed to be a certain height from the ground so as not to dazzle other drivers.
