I have just bought a Birkin - my second - and I'm not keen on the side mirrors. Attached is a picture of the one I had before and I would like to get these. Does anyone know whatOriginalBirkin.thumb.jpg.d0e7dcdc53eeb674d69d32b5e691072a.jpgthem?

 

these are and where to get them?  Thanks for any help

What is the mount thread size? Remove one of the side mirrors that you have now (cracking loose the jamb nut base at the windscreen), take the mirror to a hardware store, machine shop, or mechanic to determine if it is metric or sae and the thread pitch.

 

The thread can be sae or metric M8 or M10, both sides right hand thread or one left hand thread. I'm guessing M10-1.5 RH and LH.

I found those mirrors at a motorcycle shop when I built my Birkin 25 years ago.  They are the same as the mirrors Birkin was supplying at the time, but a lot cheaper.
