I currently have the two black Baby Tornado side view mirrors that were on the car when I bought it. Now that the car is a race car, they always seem to vibrate out of adjustment during races. Anybody have a recommendation for other mirrors that stay put and mount using the same threaded holes in the doors.

Thanks,
Mike S.

Stock mirrors are hard to beat.

Just drive faster and stay out front lol.

I have the same mirrors and they stay pretty good. How old are they?

I would agree the stock mirrors do stay put...

They are pretty old. I like their field of vision. I might just source some stock mirrors and try them out.

Put in a "Wink" mirror....amazing coverage rear, left and right sides without taking your eyes off of what's in front...best mirror ever & also provides nice sun shade for late afternoon sessions....

Already have a four panel Wink inside and I love it. Still like to have good side views in addition to the Wink.

I think the Vitaloni mirrors have a set screw arrangement on the backside to allow you to tighten them (to better hold adjustment)?

Stock work well

You have to take out the glass and tighten the swivel adj nut above 115-120


But I figure that swivel is already looser than the factory would have set it too around 50 years ago
