Hi!!

I like the look of them too!
I searched for "clip-on mirrors", but all I found was this.

I know it's not much help, but I thought I'd share it anyway...
Sorry...

Hey I like them 8) I had clip on mirrors on my original Mini in the 60's but they clipped to the leading door edge and had a long arm so they vibrated a bit and sometimes moved when you slammed the door - but were functional. These look better and more compact

Now got one, the square one fell off. and is in a few pieces after watching a truck run over it! Still got the bracket just need a new mirror. I got mine for 10pounds at a UK mini show a while back. The round one was an ebay bargain. Much better than drilling holes in your paintwork too

They are available from a few places in the UK (Mini Spares sell those ones I think) but I don't know of anybody selling that exact type in Australia. Clip on mirrors are available but they are often quarterlight mirrors and do not have the correct angle to be mounted to the sill on a Mini. (The round mirror on the blue Mini in the pic is a quarterlight mirror - there are a few different style of those available)
