IVA Wing Mirrors
Can anyone reccomend me any wing mirrors that would be suitable for IVA ?
I've seen these
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?
ViewItem&item=300571100196&ssPageName=ADME:B:WNAFP:GB:1123 on ebay - has anyone used them succesfully?
Cheers
Dave

I was wondering if anyone had used them and how they had found and also if there were any better reccomendations out there. Although the advert says
IVA approved you wouldn't have any comeback if they didn't pass - I've had parts from some of the 'big' parts supplier
sold as IVA ok and on checking them I have found that they are not - once bitten twice shy!

I understand you may be talking about the glass size, however at 6"x4" it's bound to be ok, but I thought I'd mention again
for all those reading that exterior mirrors are exempt from the exterior projections test at IVA.
Section 16: Exterior Projections, Page 120/282 "The assessment will not apply to exterior mirrors"
Plenty of examiners pick people up on this but it's another case where they should read the book thoroughly first.

Hi
They look almost identical to the ones I use on the Furore F1 for IVA, have successfully passed twice recently with these, they may not be identical
as my mirror heads measure more like 3 .25 x 5", but the tester raves about them, & believe me the Furore does not lend itself well to the
rear view test, effectively being single seater positioning.
I can do a set to a fellow locoster for £13.95 + £3.95 P & P if that helps. I have them from stock.

I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Can you be more specific on the exact location in Section 16?
I have IVA version:6.01 09/05/2011 running from pages 131 to141 and can't find the "The assessment will not apply to exterior
mirrors" part.

Its Section 16, Exterior Projections, on the 2nd page, under method of inspection. Top of that page.

Do you have any pics of the mirrors you could post? I can't seem to find them on your webshop and your ebay link doesn't seem to work.

That is true however, section 8 Indirect vision states 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 fixing
holes or recesses less than 12mm wide, which must be blunted.
I always thought they were exempt how ever I was browsing the manual last night and noticed this.

Image attached, sorry haven't had a chance to get them on the website or ebay as yet & thanks for pointing out that the ebay link is way out
of date! I will update it.

IVA ok mirrors

I should point out the picture is taken of the mirrors as they come out of the box, the mirror head should be rotated 180 degrees to the head for the
correct orientation, they'd look a bit strange when fitted otherwise!

I passed the IVA with these, or ones remarkably similar, only bitch was one had M8 LH thread, with no nuts(?) provided. They are good and don't
vibrate too badly.
