Have you considered California Vitaloni's?
They are what I have on my bug, and I think they look NICER than most porsche mirrors. Pics: They cost around £30 (UK), VERY cheap compared to many of the other offerings out there... And they do a carbon fibre version now (so I have been told). Cya, Sam c

If u can inform about the cf one’s it would be cool… |

hi
now thats funky i was looking for piper x air filters and saw those and thought about it sam they are a real nice shape the only problem i would have had is filling the holes for original mounting and then spraying again!! but for somebody who is still in the prep stage they are a sweeeeet choice and so easy on the old wallet ( keep the loved ones sweet and your half way there) . the mirror moves within the housing rather than the whole housing moving doesnt it sam? very nice. i must admit to be toying with painting my mirrors to match the bodywork but i will run mine now as they are for a while first.

I found some "cheap" porsche style mirrors. 993 super cup and 935 style mirrors for $150 to $160. www.betterbodiesusa.com
Go to the race parts section.

love the Vitaloni's and intended on using them myself. found plenty of people that sell them, but none that had any in stock and any clue when they were going to have them. Vitaloni was not manufactering at the time (just last year). hopefully this has been solved now. could have just been a US thing.

I *THINK* the base of the mirror would be large enough to cover the stock hole though.... Worth checking if someone has the bits. Quote:

It’s not easy to balance $$ and heart isn’t’ it !!
I’ve found my mirrors (Mercedes E with blinkers) but not under 150$ and that’s a lot to just look what’s happening behind |

Ruf Mirrors
After looking a few times at the Ruf website and reading this thread, I went onto Rennlist and there was a guy selling two Ruf Mirrors for $200.! So I bought them. They came in today and after a visit to Mr. Belt Grinder, I was able to get the driver side close to where they need to mount. The triangle plate was very soft resin, no fibers, with heli-coil inserts. In the photos there is the driver plate ground and the passenger not. It would appear that I will have to build an aluminum plate to attach to the mirror housing and car window frame and remove the black piece all together. I will photograph the procedure as I figure it out. I sure am glad that the guy with the blue Ruf GT Turbo R could not see around his big fenders with these, so went back to stock!
Thanks, Randy
