rear door reversing mirror

(1/3) > >>

woody:
these rear door mirrors are often fitted to jap stuff
has anyone fitted one to a discovery
coz i fancy one
sick of trying to judge the distance to hitch up caravan and park in tight spaces
if you have got one where did you get it from

lee celtic:
I was thinking the same thing ...

I was going to the scrapers to find a wing mirror off a van or truck , the type mounted on an arm then just mount it on it's side at the top of the rear door....

Range Rover Blues:
Wing mirror from a Series or door mirro from a Defender.  They are popular with caravnners.

As for Jap imports, I saw a people carrier with a pop-up aerial on the front bumper so you could tell where the car ended.  Can the japanese not park :-k

mobi:
if your looking for a mirror off a truck get the kerb mirror from the top of the passanger door. http://www.commercialandplant.co.uk/TruckMirror11.htm

thermidorthelobster:
I got a radar reversing sensor system off eBay (bnib) for £35.

Not only beeps at you depending on distance, but also LCD display on the dashboard which tells you in metres how far from an obstruction, and which of the 4 sensors is closest to it.

Makes parking 100 times easier, although it wouldn't help quite so much with the trailer.
