Guard mirrors would suit astro with the other add ons (visor , stainless trim ) but get rid of the door mirror as well .

Isn't it illegal to use wing mirrors nowadays?

I recall wing mirrors having to be moved on japanese imports due to legal reasons.

i need you to get your sewing kit out and measure how far down from the top bonnet edge and how far over from the side of the bonnet... :)

Does that help at all? Some of it will also depend on the style of mirror you use, as you can see mine slope out a bit.

Otherwise, I'll to try measure it later on this afternoon. Image

Very hard to adjust mirrors mounted on the mudgards whilst driving or even just sitting in the car... A lot of getting and getting out to adjust them unless you have a good helper... :?

set 'em once and you shouldn't really need to move them...

you've got a 360* view in a mini... i'll just use my neck if i need it...


or i could just pull up to the lights and ask the windscreen washer people to do it for me.. :)
