Wagons obviously no, but, if your Tray Back is built and registered as a Goods Vehicle and complies with all the other ADR 's for an NA category then, yes, it could be an NA2 not an MC2.Quote:

Thanks to your guidance, I am now feeling/hoping slightly more relaxed with my argument against my 'necessary' wide 'VIC' - 'G' coded tray :-)
Was thinking about upgrading the Mrs wagon to CViews but seriously worried about what JHopper would think once she's disconnected from 2.2m wide float, just like every caravan 'necessary' whilst in tow:-(
Your thoughts mate ?

Clearviews, dunno, I've never had a set so never looked closely how much they stick out.
They are a big mirror but if the inside edge is level or close to the body extremity then they should be OK.
Can't see why they would make them if they can't be installed correctly but also not sure how they install or whether people can balls it up.
I would be more inclined to install a decent Camera myself given the quality and reliability of the current generation of Cams available
Thanks ET,
Great idea, cameras for her float I will definitely look into it !
As for my ute, I think they'll be fine, did also just find this picture on their website I'm going to keep on phone for if it was to ever come up with Mansfield coppers!

I always understood that extended mirrors are legal as long as you are towing, in the ADR it says "except to the extent necessary to produce a field of view meeting the requirements of Clause 14.2.3.1.1" so if your towing a wide van they are OK. In the pic with the police there is a wide trailer (maybe if you put out witches hats they are legal, not to mention illegally parked on wrong side of the road).
So if your towing & don't have them they can get you as well.

That's my understanding now too Graham. My ute has Cviews and with 2.0m wide 'G' coded tray they are necessary 100% of the time. My concern of putting them on the Mrs wagon is that I believe she would be legal on weekends with the float but like Hodges mate could get done when disconnected mid week :-(Quote:

Why spend all that money when a pair of clip
ons will do the same job $30 super cheap
I'm starting to think there's a reason that Cview sell both options, clip on's and permanent.Quote:

I've just spent $4.5 k on GVM upgrade and new towbar (which looks exactly like the old tobar except for the numbers on the compliance label) to make absolutely sure I am totally legal - and now I hear this CRAP about mirrors!!!!! When will it end?????
