I guess Fran and I are the only ones with "BAD TASTE". I love those round holes on the RED mark I. That's what happens when you get a boy from Oakland owning a GTD (in fact it will have a boom box in it as well)
Perry, I would realy like to have your oval head light covers
.
I am in California, USA. Can you give me an Idea what the postage cost would be?
Thanks,

Sold to member 561 !! or should I say given to, I will work out the cost of postage and let you know.
I still think they look better with twin lights perhaps I should buy a MK3.
Now can I intrest anyone in a tow-hitch for a Forty !! that too had to go as-well as the Newbury Mafia made me an offer I couldn't refuse.
Regards
Ian

SDP, some of the guys from England will tell you that the ONLY place you can put rear view mirrors is on the front clip just behind the the fuel cap openings and of type shown below only: (Photo of "Yellow Peril" thanks to Frank Catt)
Truth be known, I have seen the mirrors put in every conceivable location on real and replicas. They have not all been the same style either. My advice: put them where you like them and let everyone else pound sand. (And, I mean that in the nicest way possible ;-)

To Lynn Larsen:
Thanks for the clues on the side mirrors. I have seen quite a few examples where mirrors are mounted as shown on the yellow car pictured. Given the proximity to the filler caps, it seems to add much clutter to the car's haunches. I have never tried to use mirrors mounted in this spot, so I can't comment on visibility. Maybe someone will comment on whether one can actually SEE anything with the mirrors in this position.
So far, to me the best looking (albeit a bit too futuristic for my taste) example of an unobtrusive and practical mirror is shown on a silver model that appears on this web address: http://www.gt40uk.com/images/gallery/003.jpg
I'll attempt to paste the photo but will likely fail so you can see it there if interested.
Thanks for the info.

Everyone, what you have to remember is that now SVA is upon us in the UK we have to either make some mock-ups for the test and play afterwards, or put the mirros in a place where they can be adjusted from the inside. I have heard that you can use RX7 mirrors and they look quite good.
Here is a picture of my mirrors. They are off of a 87 Mazda RX-7. They are remote operated.

This is how the mirrors were installed when my car ran at LeMans. http://www.exoticcarforums.com/glick2.jpg

Hey Hershal,
Did you encounter any problems plaing the electric into the loom? I would like to go this way (even though its a long way off). Think your car looks wicked.

Thanks SDP,
I'm very happy that you like my GT that much that you would display it to where you would look at it alot. Sorry, but I don't know of any for sale at this time but I'll keep my eyes open for you.
About the mirrors, if you get these mirrors from the RX7, please make sure that you obtain the control switch and all of the wiring and connectors from the donor. This makes the stallation into your GT alot easier. Then all is needed is to run a power wire and one ground.
