Default Exterior mirrors and Interior Rearview mirrors

Has anyone found some alternative exterior mirrors to purchase for their BD Cobras? The stock mirrors, especially the passenger side is almost useless for viewing to the rear (Doesn't stick out far enough)! Has anyone tried CLASSIC RAYDYOT STYLE RACING MIRROR - CHROME?

Also has anyone came across an interior rearview mirror (day/night) that will hook up to the stock ball connection on the stock BD cobras?

Thanks for any help on these subjects.

Do a 'Mirror' search here on the Forum, lots of suggestions and options.

Default Exterior mirror...thanks for the replies

I was able to bend the passenger side exterior mirror bracket, to make it possible to use the mirror! Thanks for the suggestions.

Still looking for some alternatives for a day/night rearview mirror, using the original mounted center bracket with ball on end, in lieu of just attaching one to the windshield! Thanks

Attached are some mirrors from last year's Huntington Beach function. Some are quite clever...
