| Re: Door mirrors
Paul, A perennial topic I fear - fitting electric mirrors to a GT40 - in my case a CAV. I have acquired a pair of BMW Mini mirrors and have figured out the wiring and plan to use them with the Ford Mondeo switch thingy. My question though concerns how you have mounted the mirrors to the car. They are quite big and heavy plus the mount is clearly designed to project through the door panel and to mount to something fitted inside the car. Did you modify the mount to make it flush with the door and mount the mirror to the door panel or cut what is quite a large hole and fabricate something to mount the mirror to inside the door? My concern with the first route is the mirror is quite heavy and might cause quite a bit of flexing of the door outer skin.
