pic request mirror inner plates manta 400

[raymond]

as anyone got a pic of inside the car when manta 400 mirrors are fitted

ie were the toggle is just wondering what people use to make it look neater

GM made a blank for early cars that only had 1 wing mirror (think 1985...) maybe source them from Steve (Duick). Failing that a vinyl trimmed peice of plastic bonded in place will look good.

My G reg saloon I've just bought had 2 blanking plates on the inside and 2 wing mirrors! These now gone to my red one with 400 mirrors.

The other thing I was gonna do is put tweeters in there.

Mirrors which don't have internal adjusters all have interior blanking plates, wouldn't have said they were that rare tbh. My saloon had them, but I've since swapped them out for SR mirrors and plates (i.e. with adjusters)

ah i see so use just use poverty spec inners

and you can use these on the outter aswell to use them as base plates for the manta 400 mirrors

[raymond]

can anyone help me with this do i use the poverty spec inners as base plates for these mirrors

cheers damian

[Dave.]

i would damian, if theyve no internal adjusters atall then pov plates would fit

oh btw i still havent found any yet

[raymond]

better get a wanted thread up hadnt i lol

i don't think the blanking innards will fit if you want to run the plastic window surrounds.

I've used some cutouts of carbon fibre but with a cardboard template would be easy to cut out of anything else.

Best way to see if blanking plates would fit tho is to just offer up a normal one.

Buy a RHD Nova passenger side exterior blanking plate & a LHD Corsa A passenger blanking plate like I did. Fit perfect ;)
Should be able to get them through a dealer if they are willing to order them.
Remeber there are 2 versions tho, with & without window surround trims.

cheers peeps ill try both

simps is there anywere to locate a button on that bracket

[The Simps]

for a door popper you mean?

could go underneath I suppose yeah. depends on the size of the button!

[raymond]

not that big mate aslong as there is enough room to fit the button and feed the wire through

ie i need them to open my door lol

[The Simps]

Should be ok. You take out the screw at the front and he seperates into 2 parts. You may have to cut some plastic away but should be doable.
