You too can have a mirror like this for less than the ebay price! I tried to make one of my own and it turned out pretty damn good for the prototype. Pic quality is crap because my camera is too. If anyone wants me to make them one I could do it.

Hijack response
Dave, How doesthat make you feel (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) ? Sorry, just a little p-sychology humor. I totally understand what you are disgruntled about. I too have no love for the business side of things when it comes to the govt and law suits. However, I used to be in the military and I could have thrived there for a lot less freedom and money. I am totally used to giving control over to a overseeing source. I wonder if that is why so many med schools seem to program, uh I mean teach mainly research. I am deffinetly not going in blind. I am actually a pessimit and expect it all to suck. Another psych thing, if you expect things to suck then every break you get is profoundly more punctuated. There are happy doctors, I just need to find out why they are and others arent. Thanks for the advise/warning. I realy value your input with all of your experiences. Dan, (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) You know you want one. I hear that heat from a heat gun applied to the out side works. East Coaster, the 2002 mirror is not the same as the 320 mirror (at least for the years that I was investigating.) The 320 mirror is more elegant, the 2002 is straighter. When you think of how much time it took you to do half of the modification, source the parts, etc what do you think you would charge? How much is your time worth? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) GWN7, I'll save you time with your search. The post basically said the same thing as here, "I think BMW 2002, 320, yadda yadda." And I said that I would do the research on this. I got busy with school and yesterday I had a few hours to fool around with a prototype. I designed a few ways to get the pins mounted and decided to moun them centrally based on the complaints some have had about the visors letting too much sun through the top between the roof. Was there any other questions that you were looking to answer from the previous posts? I think that I covered it all. I have started sourcing mirrors and have looked into making my design even more perfect. Thanks for all of your interest! I am fixing the cost at $50 including domestic shipping as any varience in mirror prices dictated this price. Quesions, comments, complaints? |
