whichever ones you get, don't expect much rear view through them they are all 'pants' I have never met anyone who has said 'aren't towing mirrors great' get the cheapest ones you can just to comply with the law

Thats because theres no one actually sad enough to discuss them other than when asked directly or looking for some. Theres a MASSIVE difference between the cheap £4.99 market shite and the likes of grand aeros (which are silly money). Durability , strength of , ease and lack of damage mounting , vibration (or not) and field of view to name some of the points Ive found this style are decent all rounders and sensible money , most car mirrors are still very usable with them attached the pic the seller has used does actually reflect the difference they make with wider vans. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-ROCK-S...item45f40403fd you can get them cheaper. the old adage if you cant see the driver in their mirrors they cant see you is very true and is actually the basis of the law. Have a lok around , you'll see loads of the pratts. I cant recall the actual legislation but Im pretty sure the spirit of it is you just need mirrors that you can see behind with and on some 4x4s the standard ones are adequate |
