its to do with the roll bar diameter isn't it?
I've got one, can't remember what brackets i ordered though, but the brackets aren't worth the money tbh.
about £25 from demon tweeks on ebay without brackets, or £55-£65 with brackets

someone on here got a mirror, and then bent a strip of ali and used hose clamps (or rubber P clips?) to fix to the roll bar

not done mine yet, but will be soon

edit, oh the 0.5" - 2" or 2"-5", don't remember having that option when i got mine, just the 1.5" or 1.75" for the roll bar, but again, make your own, and make the brackets as long or short as you need

Hi
Great mirror , its that good that you don't really need wing mirrors
However don't buy the brkts they are really expensive & will fail the IVA on radiuses
we made our own & passed the second time around.
see sketch in our photo archive, not sure how to load pictures on here, Trying!

Good luck

The black skirting I mention is used mostly on office partitions, I have loads if you need a piece.

The quoted lenths are simply the lengths of the brackets.

Short:


Long:


So it depends on how close your front rollbar is to your head!
