this is kind'a interesting - 2 years ago i had 3 of these, power with switch from an SC, very good condition nobody wanted 'em - neither on pelican or here - multiple FS tries finally sold last yr on Craigs locally for a paltry $100 all 3 - i still have the elusive 911 right side inner backing piece & template which i originally got from EASY along with a R mirror for my '75 targa - but i sold the car B4 it got installed Aero mirrors are an easy swap out on a 911 and they look way better. So not much of a market for flag mirrors. |

Maybe a stupid thought...but has anybody tried bonding the side glass mounted mirrors off a boxter/911?

To the glass in the same position as the boxters Old thread but, thinking about it as well. I'm doing an M96 swap on my 914. Will have boxster brakes, 4 x front 17' 2008 double spoke wheels, why not the mirrors as well?! My only criticism of this is that the tear drop shape doesn't really go with the body lines. @jim912928 , Did you ever do it? Pictures maybe? |

Mounting flag mirrors on the 914 requires great care in making sure they are parallel to the ground. One or two degrees up or down is very noticeable and looks... not great. Be careful taking on this project. It took me a week before I started drilling holes in the doors. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I have installed flag mirrors....I have wondered if anybody did a glass mount boxster mirrors though...intriguing thought.
