The mirrors on the car are some small aftermarket "race style" from the 80's that never stayed tight and just don't look great.

I think they are Vitaloni Baby Turbo Mirror, or at least they look like it.

They could be the EMPI copies

Going to have to take a closer look.

I have seen some nice "Porsche flag mirrors on 914s, but wonder what model and year they came off of.

I am guessing 80's 944s, or maybe even 911s??

Anyone have a favorite mirror to put on an "updated" looking 914?

Any tricks to get a good solid mound and decent fit and finish?

Those 74 911 mirrors do look kind of nice, but I am guessing they are made of unobtainium.

Still thinking I am looking for painted instead of chrome.

I was paining myself whether the 911 or 924/44 mount made any difference, as eth 924/44 would have to sit lower due to the flatter mounting surface. (But less curve matching for the base.)

Not sure why a left mirror would be different RHD or LHD?
