From the start this project was never supposed to be a big money project, and originality was never an issue. I am not cheap, but if I can save money in one area to benefit another I will certainly entertain the idea...todays project was to take a generic interior mirror and adapt to fit.

Mirror picked up for 7 quid !!! which was worth it alone for the 'old school' box graphic...
Image

fitting plate is too small to fit, so cut a piece of plate and bolt it through...
Image

Image

weld around, remove bolts and plug weld the hole...
Image

dress the weld...
Image

and painted, ready to fit
Image


Money saved over original part pays for Euro POB deposit, and the rest.... :)


Cheers
Chris

I like that torque to spec yellow paint - always wondered what that was for...I think I'll do that on my car too....what sort of paint did you use?

Nice jack btw....
