The side mirrors that were on the Jeep were something like old late 70's Holden or Valiant? So unless I adjusted them I would only see either behind or where the wheels were, I wanted something that gave me a little better field of vision without putting truck style (tripod) ones on. The bloody thing is wide enough and I don't want to be smashing them off up bush tracks.
Yes I also saw the Tarago ones used but the prices were to high I thought, also looked at Bronco mirrors which were expensive too.
I held these Patrol mirrors on and was happy with the view compared to what it had; after the restoration they'll be permanently mounted.
I'm still collecting new and used parts which is taking time, it will be a long term restoration I think.
