Supercharged 2 Posted August 20, 2008 Halfords are cheap but for a reason... VW are £25 one side and £35 the other for some reason... Both sides can be had tho for £42 from a TVR dealer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toad 0 Posted August 20, 2008 Really, never knew that! Which models? Ummm, some of them? Lol Not 100% of the top of my head. They tended to have the door opeing button in the bottom of the mirror though, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted August 21, 2008 They tended to have the door opeing button in the bottom of the mirror though, LOL - have you had a good luck at one - it's a hole drilled and a £2 pusher from maplins bodged in, feels awful! I think one of you lot should phone McLaren and get a price for mirror glass for an F1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coolrado 0 Posted August 21, 2008 Someone did tell me who made the corrado mirrors, I'm sure it was someone like Corello, the people who who make FIAT :pukeright: headlights. They certainly werent made by VW though as most of them still work even after 20 years :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwdeviant 0 Posted August 21, 2008 Could call McLaren and ask for a pair of F1-LM Mirrors too! But they will probably rip your arm off and beat your bank account to death with it! :lol: :nuts: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toph 0 Posted September 3, 2008 Must look into the TVR option as I was quoted £50 a lense by a local VW dealership! :gag: As some of ya might ave noticed, am in need of new ones as I had my current ones crossed with red tape at Edition, lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
