Has anyone thought of using these mirrors?
(IMG:http://members.shaw.ca/erikdumas/pewter%20miata.jpg) I just bought a set from a 1999 Miata for $50 (non powered). I think they will make a nice alternative to the $300/pr Porsche Aero mirrors. Thoughts? P.S. These are the new style Miata mirrors. The older style Miata mirrors are not nearly as aerodynamic looking. |

I think those would look pretty nice. I don't know how the shape of the door compares between the 914 and the Miata. The 911 mirrors are close, but not exact in terms of fitting to the door. I tried the 911 mirrors on my '72 914 with some doors that I knew I was replacing. It took several attempts to get them straight and I never really got the driver's door straight. It's tricky to figure out and I've never seen a template to help with the process.

Those mirrors should look good, once you have them on your 914,
send another picture. |
