Title: Dumbo Mirror Mounting Question
Post by: Kody021 on December 02, 2010, 07:57:44 am

I have found a set of 1991 Electric Burb mirrors and I was wondering if the mounting holes are different than the Dumbo mounting holes on a 1987 SWB? Any help would be great.

Do they have the same mounting holes as the sport mirrors?

All 3 types of mirror have drastically different hole locations.  Switching from one to another will involve filling the old holes, or living with visible holes.

The tripod mirrors are often referred to as dumbo mirrors around here. Which ones are you specifically referring to?

We kinda brought this up in another thread
