Overtaking mirror recommendations
Morning all.
Our standard T25 wing mirrors (Devon RHD) have always been a bit lacking, with overtaking blind spots etc.
Any recommendations for add-on, stick in, clip-on or alternative glass for our mirrors that offer a better, wider rear view that members have been pleased with?
Seems to be a lot of options out there, so feedback appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
I've seen some Land-rover mirrors with that built in.
We have standard LR ones and they give good coverage.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
I'll second that. Best upgrade ever. You can fold in but still keep correct mirror angle.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
Ive stuck some smaller wide angled smaller mirrors within the existing ones, not perfect and do drop off if not fixed on with additional adhesive. But the landriver option is good, if available.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
Thanks all, great tips, much appreciated.
Do the Land Rover mirrors fit existing door holes, or are extra holes needed to be drilled?
Might also look at the sticky mirror option in the short term.
Thanks again.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
Existing holes.. But you need to buy special brackets for the Landrover mirrors to fit. There is a trader on eBay selling brackets and Landy mirrors. About £90

Hi I was looking at these from VW T25 T3 Vanagon SHC Land Rover Wing Mirrors (Pair) | SHC CURRENT and they have a blind spot option.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
I mounted blind-spot mirrors inside the cab that do the job. Out of the elements and easy to adjust.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
I drive a Gipsy with large truck mirrors and a real view camera I know what is behind me it’s this mention of overtaking I don’t understand
Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations

Have these on mine and my motorbike.
Definitely helps.
Prepare for the worst but hope for the best

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
I sourced the mirrors from AliExpress and made brackets that are fixed to the pillars with silicone adhesive.

Re: Overtaking mirror recommendations
Thanks again all.
Opted for same adhesive mirrors as Icosahedron and fixed them to the wing mirrors, as we were heading out on a trip. Seems to work fine.
Will keep an eye out for Landrover mirror options.
Appreciate all responses, thanks.
