Anybody know where to buy or who can make me some shortened mirrors?
Don't think you could ever buy them
Some were made by Fearless Motorsport. others have made there own, seeing Craig make his own there is alot of time involved

They're pretty much all home-made. As above quite alot of effort needed as it involves 2 mirrors for each side, splitting them, joining them and fibreglass + filling to make them have the factory shape.

enybody got pics im also doing this?
I made a pair of these a while back, you dont need to use 2 pairs of mirrors, its just knowing where to cut them. Mine have never been fitted, i probably will when my project is finished.
I have pics somewhere. give me 5 mins
Never quite understood the logic of making a small sh1t view mirror even smaller and sh1tter myself.........

overall took about 3 hours per mirror.
they look quite smart but nova mirrors are S H I T E as it is and those just make things worse.

The main thing is to make the standard mirror electric.

My plan that I never got round too was to get a corsa b electric mirror and see about swapping the electric motor over but I've never seen inside one to see if it's possible.

I did this years ago. Got the motors from a Cav or astra. However the motors were less than great. I think they were fitted less than half an hour before I took them back out. It's easy to do, just don't expect your mirrors to work properly lol
