Side view mirrors-what R these??

Mmmmh, that car looks familiar.
They are Ruf mirrors, or copies of them. 935s had them too. A lot of sellers for those.

I got the same mirrors on my RSR replika, got them from GT-Racing but obtained panoramic glass just to be able to see smething
behind

Actually the pic of your car in the "light yellow" thread piqued my interest. I e-mailed you, but maybe it didn't go through.

Thanks for the info guys.

I painted mine black satin. Blends in with the window trim.

Where were you able to find the glass? I need to replace the glass in mine, but just can't seem to locate a source.

Any larger car/truck parts shop will have large convex mirror glasses for about 5-10$. Then off to a glass shop to have it cut to shape. Did that to mine and it provides a much needed improvement in rear vision.

WOW! Thanks for the quick reply, George!

I guess my only problem now is finding a replacement for the plastic part that holds the mirror. It's there, in place, but is just all dried out and brittle.

I guess I'm just a little torn. If I end up needint to replace the whole mirror assembly, I think I may just opt for the flag mirrors. Visibility in these RUFs leaves a LOT to be desired.

If I can just replace the glass and plastic pieces, I'd leave them, but it just doesn't look very promising.
