    Front Windscreen Mirror

    Well, I admit that I'm a real man and so sit high & wide in the drivers seat of Steve (my GQ). One annoying thing that I really dislike about Steve is the placement of the rearview mirror on the front windscreen of the GQ. It basically obscures the entire centre view no matter how I have it positioned.

    My question is, does anyone else have this problem and if so how have you gotten around it?

    In a GQ the mirror bolts to the roof, just remove it. As long as you have external mirrors on both sides you don't legally need the interior RV mirror.

    I have no problem with mine, maybe as Tony ( Ynot ) said get rid of it, if you still want 2 see out the back look at replacing it with a reversing camera, that is set up 2 a position that suits you.

    Cheers

    Mate.... Tony.......Mate....when was the last time you did an RWC? You won't believe this, but, I have had trucks with pantechs knocked back for no rear view cab mirror. Same as when i was grease monkeying, they had to be cars even with 2 external mirrors.

    If you know something I can throw back at them next time, I am all ears.

    As ya know I respect what you say, but will ask if I understand otherwise.

    my question is do you have adjustable suspension seats that need weight control wound down?
