Mirror blanking plates
« on: 11 May 2008, 09:15 »
I want to remove and replace the original mirrors with englemanns mounted on to the doors.  Does anyone anywhere produce any sort of blanking plates to cover the hole left on the outside?  I want both sides  :smiley:

I don't think there are genuine blanking plates of this sort... genuine aftermarket ones maybe  :wink:

There's been a few on ebay over the last few months.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
