I bought a pair of Talbot style mirrors with built-in turn signal light from a guy in Cyprus on eBay. They weren't cheap. I think I paid about $160. I've since seen some that were very similar without the lights for $15. Not being sure of visibility I've elected to use a rearview camera that will be mounted in a small pod on the roof just behind the rear window. The pod will also contain satellite radio and GPS antennas. The camera feeds a 7" dash mounted monitor. I used the same type camera in my Hupmobile with great success. Its wide angle and night vision.

go to www.mosmotors.comgo to AH Sprite/MG Midget (left panel w/blk background) click, in center column, down 4 to Exterior, click Mirrors, then Accessory Mirrors. we chose 165-500/165-400 Lucas style. They have the bullet style mirrors too. reasonable price, quick delivery, look like the original. can also use the turn signal assemblies here too. enjoy

The talbot styled mirrors are available on EBAY pretty cheap, as well as through Factory Five. I used a set on the Brad I rebuilt. Getting them in the right spot where they will not interfer with the gulls is a challenge.

I stuck a pair of convex mirrors over the original mirror face. Sure, everything looks closer, but a get a way better field of vision.

Hey great looking mirrors. They look good on the door, not to big & sit level. I have to make a note on these for mine GTII Good looking Logo also. Will be starting to work & post picture on mine Bradley (BRADLEY SS) soon.

Greetings to Mrbigh and Skip20. I like both your ideas. My Bradley GTII project is now running, but needs a couple finishing touches, title, license and tires. The mirrors and logos would be a nice touch. I am glad I found this new site. Mrbigh, thanks for the link. Skip20, I'll contact you on those logos.

here my latest that I decided to do while repairing the doors. I'm putting the mirrors in as part of the glass framing. The mirrors are Eclipse after-market (Manual w/TS lights). I cut off the base and added mounting bolts. The wedged plate was formed in metal and fit in the glass channel. It has a glass channel welded to it to accept the cut-down L-glass GaryG
