Title: Bash-able Cheep wing mirror for ZJ XJ
Post by: bigjeepzj on September 16, 2014, 10:42:07 PM

Due to the ease of which one can smash off ones wing mirrors on a ZJ I came up with the idea of using these

and a bracket made from a bit of angle
they take a battering  :icon_super: :icon_super: did not brake them

After taking another mirror off at the weekend trialing, I've now done this. Nice one Dave  :icon_super:

Mine are from a L**d R**er Offender. Brand new from Ebay, they cost me a fiver for the pair. They've been ploughed into trees and it's been on it's side twice but they're still in one piece :003:

I must try harder........

Understandable :003:
They actually suit my YJ, but they would certainly look shit out of place on a ZJ
