im looking for a new interior mirror, i know you have zoom, kg works and rs products all of which are very nice if a little pricey.

so i guess im asking has anyone come up with a good cheap alternative? do any other car makes mirrors fit in a mk1 1990 car, where it fixes to the windscreen surround.

im happy to buy another KG works mirror but if you have an alternative id love to hear about it :)

yes i have seen it but the prices of the lucas mirrors have gone through the roof recently!! last one sold for £60...

a new kg one is only £75

Hmmm, I'd always assumed the KG Works were more expensive (and the lucas cheaper)
Got me thinking about a KGW mirror now!

I had a Moon Eyes rear view mirror in my old car, ironically the box said "Made in Japan" hahaha but it was a decent price back then (2002ish) and excellent quality, i think i paid like $95 USD for it?
