Dammit - half a mile from home and knocked the mirror! Will I get away with mirrorguards?

In my experience, they have the effect of greatly reducing the received signal strength. I found I got 'Station unavailable' frequently. I've now switched to just using FM. It's really just as good.

shit! maybe i already have mirrorguards.!!

I had a truck take one out on a Welsh road. I replaced just the back in about half an hour with a new back piece off eBay for £17. Looks original. I managed to crack the overtaking mirror when replacing it so that was another £8.
The original look was important to me rather than protecting for the future. Check if you have short, medium or long arms....there must be a joke involving pockets??

Our local body work chap made both our mirrors like new. Him indoors managed to prang both. £60 each. Cannot see the join!!

We clashed mirrors last time out. We have mirrorguards and initially thought all we had was faint mark on corner. However closer inspection shows hairline crack in mirror guard casing. Any ideas on sealing/gluing crack.

I have found that this is good for fixing broken plastic. Not a cosmetic fix but that is the easy bit.

I screwed mine on from the bottom and covered with a white screw cap, better than nothing tbh

Whatever matches your motorhome?, mine are the grey which match the CV20 perfectly.

Sounds great, can I ask where you got them?

Fitted a pair of short arm mirrors to our 6m Eldiss, best £100 I've spent on the van, rear visibility doesn't seem any different to me & van feels so much narrower, doubt mirror clashing is going to be an issue any more
