On Barryboys they're referred to as 'Thalidomide mirrors'

Look OK though

Yes the very ones, I'm gobsmacked at the quality being so much cheaper than other examples around.

When fitting them you have to be very carefull putting the screws in...otherwise that's it. Total fitting time about 15 mins...

Thanks for your comments guy's

Well I'm a blind old git & I can see fine with them, of course it's quite a change from original, however I have to reverse my Scoob right through my garage onto it's pad at the rear of the house, it's tight to say the least but the mirrors don't make it any more difficult to see.....

I can't sing the praises enough, right from initial purchase through to the quality of delivery via DPD, packing was first class too.

I will be buying more from this guy without a doubt.......

have you seen the silly £80 DTM type I had...jeeeeeez they are scrap in comparison
