RE: Wide angle mirrors [Was]...Re: [doc] A few new litt.....

["Chris Parnham" <chrisparnham1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The tree factory RHD?s were fitted with convexed   glass, but I still
find a need for the small curved panoramic mirrors  (Halfords about
£4.00) and fix them above the existing mirror ( RHS).   which can be
seen on Matt Clark?s Frenchy on the club website)  I have them on most
of my cars and couldn?t manage without them. 
 
Best regards

John,

Walter Coe in the USA has designed some wide angle mirrors for the 
DeLorean. 
I think, if memory serves, that he simply found a suitable convex 
lense off anouther car and then cut them to fit the Delorean. 
They looked quite good and gave much better visability and he was 
selling them when I last spoke to him.

I would have thought it would be relativly in-expensive to do, but 
you need to find a suitable mirror to start with, it's probably no 
bad thing to have better mirrors as the visability from the DeLorean 
is not the best (though it is better than a lot of other sports 
cars).

I think Walter & his mirrors can be found through the DMC Forum news 
group.
