gonna put these on very soon, they are f1/bike style mirrors mounted on some blanking plates i got from germany, drilled them and fixed them to look as oem as poss, still got a bit of fluffing around to do , but they should look ok, even if i can see much through them   :laugh:   :evil:

I've never seen these mirrors on a golf b4. Look pretty cool and it'll be interesting to see them when they're on. A very interesting idea on your part, a very well done for thinking originally!! :smiley:
And as for the MOT,should be ok, just make sure you have a friendly tester just incase!! :grin:
