I'm looking to add mirrors (at least the passenger side) to my newly aquired ride. I'm looking for a mirror that can clamp or bolt to the tube doors and can be folded in when on the trail. I've found some similar to what I want without the ability to fold. Wild Horses has them (linked below). Does anyone have any suggestions? I'll even take just the mirrors with threaded swivel stud ont the back that I can make folding brackets for, but I havent had much luck finging a source for them.

Look up nicks trix broncos on the east coast somewhere. I saw some sweet looking mirrors that he had mounted on a bronco on a thread or on his website somewhere.

I added a "nut" to my tube doors so that I could run motorcyle mirrors of a VTX 1800 !;D

Wasn't a clamp on, but I welded a 1" wide tab off the back of my tube doors on the hinge side. Then I drilled a hole and bolted a 4" round spot mirror on each one. I bent both tabs back so I could see the mirrors past my roll cage.

Great idea!

Thanks man! ;D AND I got the mirrors for FREE!;D

I guess if I want to put some trick motorcyle mirrors on I could as well but hey FREE always works and they were brand new because the guy that gave them to me put on some after-market mirrors!:cool:

I have Bronco II mirrors and I love them. They are dirt cheap, hold up to quite a bit of abuse and bend in nearly any direction.

JBG has them for $26, but you can find them for half that elsewhere...
