Side View Mirror Option - 06/30/22 01:31 AM
Been looking at side view mirrors for the 1929, all kinds of clamp, hinge, etc out there. not sure what to do, so found some suction cup mirrors to try out. ordered one from Amazon: Side View Mirror Option 1
these have a 6" flex arm, with a suction cup and 3.35" diameter convex mirror. only issue is that it has to mount on a FLAT surface in order for the suction cup to work, and have a long enough arm to get the mirror where i need it so see. got the mirror in today and tinkered with locations where i can mount it and use it, tried the door, but have to look out and down to see it, no good, tried on hood, no good. then what about the visor ?? bam enough area to suction on and arm is just long enough to reach around so i can see. i can see behind and around me without moving my head from natural position while driving.
also tried it on the passenger side and was able to mount it same location and get the mirror around so i could see down the side of the car and around me. so think these will work, and good value for the money. plus i can remove for shows if desired. if they fall off while driving then will find another route. did a short test drive for the engine with these on and it did not budge and was SO NICE to be able to see behind me !!
