Hi All,

Just wondering, am at the stage of replacing the tatty/broken old R6 mirrors I had fitted previously, can they be E marked, or in fact do they need to be E marked for IVA ?

Doesn't have to be e marked, see below from the Indirect Vision section of the manual:
Of course just makes your life easier if they are!


7. All mirrors must have an acceptable approval marking or have equivalent
characteristics to a mirror approved for use on a vehicle of the same
category as follows:
- The reflective surface must be encased in a protective housing
- surfaces contactable by a 165mm sphere (interior) or a 100mm
sphere (exterior) must have a radius of curvature of at least 2.5mm
– except for fixing holes or recesses less than 12mm wide, which
must be blunted

there are requirements for minimum 'reflective surface' size too

8. An interior mirror must be a minimum of 40mm high by 80mm long (see Note 2 & Figure 1)

9. An exterior mirror must be a minimum of 40mm high and 70mm long, and be able to incorporate a measurement parallel to the height of the rectangle at least 70mm in length within the lens. (see Note 2 & Figure 1)

Cheers guys, that sounds perfect as have found some cheaper than OE ones and i think they look great like the original ones.

Wahoo getting there !!
