roll cage wing mirrors

hi there,

recently ive seen a few caterhams about with full cage's and wing mirrors that bolt on to the cage on what would be the A-pillar. I'm guessing they kinda just have a strap/jubilee clip round the tube... does anywhere know where i might be able to get some as there some of the last items i need....
ive had a quick look on caterham website/store and on the caterham section of demon theives.....

click for sample pic

cheers for any help
james

Hi as you can see here. Most weld mountings usually a small flat plate.

Or some use as said jubalie clips.


Invertations to pass up the inside where sent out the previous week.

James,

Could you not make up a clamping bracket.

Piece of tube that would slide over rollcage tube. Cut that lengthways, weld on flats for mirrors to bolt to, and to clamp with.

Take a couple of hours and cost a couple of quid.

cheers for the replys guys, i think i might try the jubilee clip way to start with as i dont really want to damage the powdercoating on the cage so i can weld them on...

when i have seen them before the cars are always going past too quick to have a proper look.

thanks
