roll cage wing mirrors
stripe - 22/6/07 at 06:38 PM

hi there,

recently ive seen a few caterhams about with full cage's and wing mirrors that bolt on to the cage on what would be the A-pillar. I'm guessing they kinda just have a strap/jubilee clip round the tube... does anywhere know where i might be able to get some as there some of the last items i need....
ive had a quick look on caterham website/store and on the caterham section of demon theives.....

click for sample pic

cheers for any help

or weld some mountings to the cage, just don't drill the tube!!

Hi as you can see here. Most weld mountings usually a small flat plate.

Or some use as said jubalie clips.


Invertations to pass up the inside where sent out the previous week.

James,

Could you not make up a clamping bracket.

Piece of tube that would slide over rollcage tube. Cut that lengthways, weld on flats for mirrors to bolt to, and to clamp with.

Take a couple of hours and cost a couple of quid.

cheers for the replys guys, i think i might try the jubilee clip way to start with as i dont really want to damage the powdercoating on the cage so i can weld them on...

when i have seen them before the cars are always going past too quick to have a proper look.

thanks
