Mirror

Good morning all.

I've seen a few different mirrors mounted on what I will call the front rollbar hoop screen support. This is on the RV8

I considering placing a mirror up here and was wondering what options there are to us and importantly what works and is secure?

Any thoughts, links to sites, suppliers and photos would be appreciated..:D

Thanks in anticipation.

Cheers

Bernie

If you can't find exactly what fits, it is easy to mod Cessna 150 mirrors from a junkyard to fit. Small survival mirrors are also tough enough if can make an aluminum mount and either bend some tabs over to grip the mirror or use some silicone . There is also some larger thin Mylar mirrors that can be cut to shape with a band saw
 
Do a search for "mirrors" in teh RV-8 forum here, and you'll find all sorts of options that people have used. I am quite happy with the Autozone mirrors velcroed in place - cheap and effective.
