Title: Teardrop mirrors - where can I find them? Post by: Ol_Girl_58 on February 20, 2003, 03:14:39 AM Hi guys, thanks for your responses to my questions, and the encouragement and praise to my car photos. ;D ;D
But I have another one for ye: Tear drop mirrors - the little mirrors that hang somewhere near the top of the 1/4 vents. Where can I find a pair? Also: half moon headlight covers: They look cool. Where can I find them? Thanks. Josh ;) P.S. I was toying with the idea of debadging the car and deleting the rear door handles. What do you think?? ???

various suppliers found in mags like Cruizin, ASR etc, may have what u r after. check with your local rego guys for door handles, and whether or not u can delete them. see "door handles" in the modification thread. i think the choice is yours for badges or none... deleting too much may make your car look like a standard. personally i like chrome, just delete the bits you find fussy. there are some cars which have airbrushed chrome look trim on them!

I have seen most of the gear you want at Rod-Tech in SA www.rodtech.com.au and they do COD. Title: Re: Teardrop mirrors - where can I find them?

(http://photo.starblvd.net/~sgomachen/2-1-2.jpg) It came from Johns Rod & custom shop in Vic. but I have seen them advertised in various mags, maybe a Rare Spares in Qld. ad. Close enough to $50 each. Title: Re: Teardrop mirrors - where can I find them? Post by: Jockster on February 25, 2003, 01:19:11 PM Hey Josh
There is a set of mirrors on ebay under collectable car parts, I didn't get the link but they are pretty easy to find, the last bid was $30 for the pair Jock Title: Re: Teardrop mirrors - where can I find them?
