    Default Anyone got pics of F1 style mirrors on AE86s?

    Due to an unfortunate combination of cage placement, window net, and seat mounting i can see almost nothing out of my drivers side wing mirror.

    Hence im thinking about putting a pair of these on the car:

    I figure that having the mirror further out from the door will help with visibility.

    Anyone got pics of what they look like on an AE86?

    Also what about one of those really wide rear view mirrors?

    Already have a convex Broadway. Doesnt help once they get into the blindspot behind the C pillars. The HANS device doesnt let me turn my head enough to headcheck either

    Does your cage come down in front of the dash? If so mount the mirrors to the side of the cage like they do in NASCAR
    MOPAR or no car!

    That is actually a good idea. A single 3" spot mirror mounted to the cage could be adjusted to give the visibility that im missing from the main wing mirror.
