Now I'm towing the caravan, I'm really happy with how they work..
Still think the Oz price is a real ripoff
Yeah upwards $800 for the same mirror , the blind spot mirror is fantastic as you said no more turning the head .
One advantage in doing them with steel is you can make the spring tension adjustable just by adding or taking away washers from the main coil spring , noticed mine have the slightest vibration but roads around here are rough as guts .
Have you worked out a cover for the outside yet ? Was looking at the original piece that covered mine and I reckon with a bit of work I could make them fit .
