New mirrors without E mark
v8kid - 1/9/07 at 03:20 PM

Bought a couple of Honda 90 Cub replacement wing mirrors from a chap on Ebay and when they arrived they are not E marked.
As I only bought them for the SVA I'm a bit pissed off. Does it matter?

No - the inspectors are quite relaxed about e-markings on mirrors.

They only need to be the correct height and width, and have the correct radii on the edges.

As long as they have similar characteristics as E marked ones they should be fine.
My car passed with non E marked Cub mirrors.

The Cub70 is so old its unlikely mirrors will be E-marked. I've just checked mine and they're not e-marked. Still passed without a problem though
