I know this is an old post but what do you think of the 3rd Generation RX7 mirrors? Think they would work on a wide body 914?

That RX7 mirror looks pretty good to me, but you're right that it's a bit big except maybe for a Sheridan bodied car (like yours).

Turns out I broke one of the Vitaloni mirrors on my car last weekend. I was not very fond of the big "flag" style mirrors anyway, so now I'm in the same boat of trying to find something clean and effective to use.

The hunt is back on. I have installed a cheap flag type mirror, but it is not quite level with the ground. Has a black finish. It'll probably vibrate so much that it'll be useless. I have a wide convex mirror on the front roll cage member and I can see out of the passeneger window in the mirror! I can also see well around to the driver's side as well. except there's this big helmut in the image. Where'd that come from? ......oh. See avitar.

I have a Longacre convex inside mirror too. I couldn't see squat out of the passenger door mirror (Petty bar) and might just leave it off -- the right side and straight-back view is great through the inside mirror anyway.

Unfortunately the PO drilled the damn doors for these Vitaloni things, arghh.

Speaking of Mirrors, has anyone used a little round stick on?
 

Has anyone tried to install one of the smallest little round stick ons on the passenger 914 mirror for a better view? I went with the wider but shorter mirror for the passenger side but it is still so small that it is almost useless. My drivers side is the narrow tall one and it is better but it is also much closer to me. I just thought that maybe one of the little round stickon things might make it more useable. i must be lucky though as i don't have any vibration in either side on my mirrors...peter

Zeke,

I have a set of (2) original (used in good shape) 914 door-mounted mirrors I'd be willing to let go for $25 ea, + shipping of course. I've already used baby tornados on one car, and have something else planned for the other car.

So if you're interested - they're yours!

Bee Jay,
The BMW mirrors look like they clear the trim on the vent window much better than the stock. Are you able to see the right mirror clearly without obstruction?

Regards,

I know everyone will wince,...but I used 1978 camaro mirrors on mine. They fit nice and they go with the Rayco kit.

I see fine thru my BMW M3 replicas.
