Side Mirror C20 1979
« on: August 01, 2019, 11:12:01 AM »
Hello! The right side mirror glas is broken. For this reason i search a new mirror.
I think the mirrors which are on my c20 are not original. Into the internet i canˋt find my version. Does anyone knows this version? Where can i buy it?

My fear is, when i buy the original mirror, the hole for the screws are wrong and the new arms does not fit.

If a glass shop can't help you it is going to be quite a search.  Looks to me the stock tripod of that era may fit perfectly using the same holes and they would look a lot better IMO.  Here is a picture I snagged from a member here

Those look like Mirrors from a Ford or maybe some generic aftermarket mirrors

cant really help you on the style of mirrors but are they telescopic?

Thanks for your answers.
Here in germany it is not so easy to find some parts, especially the parts are not original.
Fortunately there is the internet. I have order similar mirror like in the picture of roundhouse now.
Irish_Alley...yes i can pull out the mirror with that holder circa 4-5 Zoll ( ca 11 centimeter )
