Hi Guys and Girls

Bumble has chrome mirrors fitted, but I cant find them anywhere, they are very pitted and the glass going a bit on the edges so I would like to change them for the same, does anyone know who supplies them, I assume they were fitted by Danbury from new

thanks

Ray

Have you tried all the usual places. JK, CC, heritage etc. Failing that try ebay and Google. Just searched 'T2 bay mirrors' and came up with a few hits

Hi Ray, I have just bought a new pair of chrome/stainless door mirrors from VW Heritage...they have grey trim around the mirror. £14.50 per mirror and got a 5% discount

Got stainless steel ones on offer from just kampers. You need to be careful as the Brazil bay need a longer thread. You might have to tap a few more turns to make them secure.

The other option is to replace the full width retaining nuts with a thinner (half width) version.

Mega-bug sell the stainless mirrors as do a host of other VW Aircooled specialists. The trick is to wind the locking nut as far up the shaft - using grips etc - before fitting. Make sure you fit a plastic grommet too to prevent water ingress.

I have a Danbury watercooled T2 camper which I have had from new in 2008 . I opted for chrome wing mirrors and those fitted from new served me well . They became pitted over time and replaced them about 2 years ago with stainless steel from just kampers . I'm afraid these have not been so good . The actual mirrors refuse to remain rigid when driving and forever need adjusting . Iv even tried taping them up without any improvement . Can anyone recommend a quality replacement ? I have also considered buying a pair of those fitted as standard on the original . They are much bigger , but very expensive , close to £300 a pair from just kampers .
Sorry to ramble on .
Has anyone had similar problems .
Thankyou

Danbury did have a good stock of the original large black mirrors which they had removed to replace with the smaller shiny versions.
We were able to buy a replacement black mirror at a reasonable price. Perhaps they still have some.
