panamericano Posted July 21, 2019 Posted July 21, 2019 I just put Brooklands on and need mounts for my 2 side mirrors. I have Raydots that I'd like to use. I see all kinds of mounts on the web, especially tripods. But, I can not find a source. Surely everyone does not have to fabricate from scratch? Help?

I see all kinds of mounts on the web, especially tripods. But, I can not find a source. Surely everyone does not have to fabricate from scratch? Help? I've searched for Seven parts just about everywhere over the years and have never seen the tripod mounts listed for sale. I think they'd have to be fabricated unless someone else knows a source?
Brightonuk Posted July 22, 2019 Posted July 22, 2019 Yep you will need to fabricate arms I also looked all over the web I think I found one place but the cost was ridiculous. You can try Mogparts it is a Morgan parts place states side and have some stalks you may be able to get to work
Kitcat Posted July 22, 2019 Posted July 22, 2019 (edited) As I recall, the last time this came up here the solution was to Google motorcycle mirrors and choose from the hundreds of motorcycle mirror options (complete with arms/stalks:)). At least for side mirrors. Yes, you still have to attach them, but drilling thru the Caterham's aluminum and attaching a washer on either side (or just on the inside inside) seemed to work reasonably well.

panamericano Posted July 22, 2019 Author Posted July 22, 2019 Fabricate...do it. To use the Raydots, that looks like the only way. I'll probably start with something simple like the photo below (not mine) then add 2 struts if it vibrates too much.
panamericano Posted July 22, 2019 Author Posted July 22, 2019 Oops. Never had trouble with photos before. Maybe my dues are delinquent?
