Some people use the cheap suction one from Halfrauds or you can actually get them from large Tesco stores which is where i bought mine. After SVA i'm going for a race jobby.

Why wait until after the SVA mine went through with a SPA centre post mirror fitted. All I did was glued some edging strip to meet the radius regs. I also had SPA wing mirrors fitted (which are slightly smaller than the regs require). The inspector did query them but could see enough with them to satify him and passed the car anyway.

SPA centre mirror - flat glass
SPA GT/Le Mans - convex glass both

You can buy direct too

The pic shows the mirrors. the car went for SVA without the aeroscreen. The wing mirrors were mounted in the position shown by the red scribble.

I use a Racetech convex mirror - you can use a wing mirror with the stalk rear facing, works a treat - and well priced.

Yeah, not cheap, but the centrepost mirror has a very good field of view.

The prices seem to have gone up since last year when I bought mine. If I remember I paid just over £110 for all three mirrors, but there may have been an offer on at the time.

Still saved money by buying second hand wheels and various other parts so it all evens out in the end.
