Re: [diesel_mercedes] Trying to make right wide angle mirror.

 

We've always had the right side mirror glass available in convex for these cars. We have both the manual version and the electric version. They don't have the "warning" writing on them either. A neat mirror glass for both sides used in Europe is a "double convex" that is sort of a bifocal, where the outer inch or so of the mirror glass is canted outward. You get a very wide field of view with these. Works great. Just need to find a part number for them.....

Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Trying to make right wide angle mirror.

 

I was trying to make the stock W123 right side mirror into a wide angle one by
getting the mirror hanger parts but I found an old new stock version. Turns out
there are factory wide angle mirrors out there. I got mine at
http://www.a-and-f.com/ In Oakland, CA. Walked in asking for a broken mirror
and the manager said he had a bunch he'd had for at least 15 years. Cost me
under 100 dollars. He's happy to get rid or them and I bet some of you have
been looking for a right side mirror.

call them I bet he'll reduce the price. I was happy just to get one. Lawrence
