My wing mirrors suck. I've noticed these bolts on both my doors which I suspect were for some after market mirrors.



Can anyone recommend something that might fit?

Thanks. Ian

Having done some research, we're pretty sure defender mirrors would work. Anyone local have any spares or at least one I can borrow to confirm.

Check the bolt spacing. The Defender mirror bolt spacing is 60 mm and they use 1/4" UNF bolts.

60mm confirmed

Should bolt straight on then.  If you do not find used easily, new ones are very cheap.   Less than $20 for an arm and mirror.

I've been doing a bit of sorting of my LR parts and may have a couple mirrors for you.  If I have spares, I can leave them at Bill's house when I'm in the city next Tuesday as I have other things to leave with Bill anyway.  I'd bring to September meeting but not sure if I will make that meeting.  My wife and I are off to New Zealand to celebrate her mother's 100 birthday.
