Where do I find these?, Bullet Mirrors Options

Same thing. Same model number. They're just a genaric mirror for no car in specific.

Those look like these...
Both are used often on cobra's and 60's period cars.

yeah, beat me too it. Much cheaper if you look around the Mustang/Cobra sites.

And I agree with jd.., YOU CAN'T SEE A DAMN THING WITH THOSE MIRRORS! My friend had them on his vintage 70 Mustang T/A I drove out at Willow a couple of times - for one race - mounted on the door in a factory location (close to the driver, not out on the fenders) and I/he couldn't see a goddamn thing in them. He took them off when he got home and put the "stock but bigger" ones back on.

Mount them out on the fenders and fahgetaboutit. They look cool, but if a car behind you isn't right in the small line of site it has, you will never see it, unless you have all the time in the world to not bother watching where you are going, then you can squint, twist your head around, lean forward then back and all that and probably find them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

IMO they are good enough if you just street drive and don't mind twisting around to check your blind spots and such to be certain no one is there, then the cool factor might outweigh the functionality, but if you track the car, I wouldn't like them, especially that far away on the fender.

Man, I didn't think this thread would go on so long. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dead horse.gif) Maybe I should stop asking questions..... Anyways, did your friend have the flat mirrors of the convex ones? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Just asking because you said that they had bad L.O.S.

I work on a number of older sports cars, not just Porsches. Frankly, those mirrors might look cool, but they're effectively USELESS. The original mirror on my 911 is better than those things, what with being a little bigger and mounted on the door, but it's still not very good. In fact, the stock 914 mirror isn't all that great, either. I sure wouldn't want to drive in traffic with a 3 inch round mirror 4-5 feet out in front of me. Or even 3 feet. The Cap'n

I think the other guys helped back the point, but to answer your ? IIRC he had the convex ones because he knew the flats would be really bad. The issue was that if you run flat ones you will see nothing. The convex ones, the car won't "look right" and really hard to tell where the other car was in relation to his car (i.e. how close they were and whether you could safely cross over in front of them to stay on line or hit them). A couple feet out on the fender and you would see a colored dot for the following car and have no idea whatsoever of relative distance.

They just suck frankly. Save yourself the money, and I agree the stock 914 mirror isn't all that great either, but golden by comparison to the bullets.
