what and where to get centre mirror?
Hi, after a search i realise i need a centre rear view mirror. i have a racetech mirror set but doubt it will make the radius test. Can anyone
recommend a central mirror that will pass sva mounted to scuttle as i dont have a screen.
Cheers

I used a Fiat Punto one, turned around and upside down.
Works great

the Halfords one doesn't tilt enough to see anything other than sky (been there, tried that!).
I just recieved my Racetech one from MNR after searching on here. I understood it will pass with a bit of trim around the mount... Can anyone confirm?

the halfords one tilts more one way up more that the other but just turn it over, all i can see through mine is the roll bar anyway and even the
tester said it was pointless but had to be fitted, but its coming off soon and my racetec one is going on

Always been happy with my Mk2 Golf one.
It's big enough to get a good view out the back.
Once through SVA you can strip the rubber casing off the stalk and it's quite nice cast ali lattice work underneath! 
Cheers,
James

I used a SPA design one with a sharp edge, just put some very small rubber edge trim around it and it was fine.... Woolies sell it, about £1 a meter.
If you're not living life on the edge you're taking up too much room.
