auxilary Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 I just had a crazy idea of swapping my motorcycle mirrors onto the Z. For some reason I think it might look ok, so tomorrow or the following day I'll see what a test fit will look like and take pics. If anyone's interested and likes the look, replica mirrors for crotchrockets go for about $50 a pair tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruxGNZ Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 Hey, good idea! I can't wait to see some pictures. You could even Photoshop the image of your 600R mirror onto a Z, it's at just the right angle. I still like the idea of '93 Tercel (yeah, that's a Toyota ) mirrors that fit in the corner of the frame of the window. Has anyone done that yet? I remember seeing this on someones web site a while back. !M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 I did the Tercel mirror onto my driver's side, but I need to re-mount it. Hopefully I'll have that done next week and I'll post about it. Pretty easy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsil Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 I'm thinking Honda Accord mirrors. They happen to have the same rake and tumblehome as the Z (within a degree), so all I have to figure out is how to mount them, which shouldn't been too tough. Maybe ever be able to us the power mirrors??!?! Pete - love to see your setup. AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 Al, great minds think alike! I saw a Civic the other day with some nice OE mirrors that looked like the rake would work well on a Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruxGNZ Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 Cool Pete! I can't wait to see what it looks like on the Z. I'll have to start looking at some Honduh's to see if they would fit the shape of the Z also, good idea. The stock mirrors on my car are just too old. I can't tighten them up anymore, because they are just too OLD. The chrome is really pitted too, 'cause they are JUST TOO OLD . I shut the drivers door and the mirror swings inward after it shuts . !M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
