Title: Mirror
Post by: holmesgr001 on December 19, 2014, 02:32:41 PM
I am picking up a door mirror tomorrow. My beta is a rhd and has a Crome mirror on the right door but not on the left. The mirror for sale would be off a right hand drive too. My thoughts are? Can I fit it to the left door. I have turned the mirror on my beta a full 180 degrees and it looks like it would work. Anyone done this?

I would say "it depends" as you do not say which door mirror you have?

A picture would be good of what you already have.

Yes, these mirrors are not handed and fit either side.

I have a broken one that would be repairable with some epoxy and small bit of steel bar (say a cut down bolt?). Your welcome to that if you want it.

They come up on ebay very occasionally but vary widely in price. I have seen a pair fetch £150, but IIRC the last pair went for £35.

I have a spare one but its been painted black at some point and although complete its not aesthetically pleasing on the eye :-)

Hi Peter, sadly I have scrapped my plans to restore the beta. I spent some of December stripping the car and there is just to much rust on the car, I wont be needing the mirror and you welcome to have it. Just posting from johannesburg

Peter

Given that he's dropped his restoration plans he's probably dropped off the forum? Stick to his e-mail?

Hi Peter, life got really hectic and lancias took a back seat. I would like to send you the door mirror. Just need to work out how to get it off the door without damaging it.

Hi

Welcome back, still really would like it.

It should have a rear grub screw on the base which is normally an Allan key to loosen, then lifts off its mount which is screwed on to the door.

PM details of how much you want for it + shipping.

Thanks

Peter
