Does anyone know if the LRX Concept wing mirrors will be available to buy anywhere. Would be nice to complete the "concept to production" journey.

I would say no.
The mirrors are that size due to EU laws.(% of the car).

If they were mirrors I think they would probably be illegal (too small) - but i think they were actually cameras on the LRX - which is definitely illegal. I know a few companies are trying to get the law changed so that cameras can been used but I'm not sure how far they have got.
So no, I don’t think you’ll see them anytime soon.
They are too small to comply with EU regs so they wont be available from Land Rover but I'm sure that some of the "pimp my range rover" type sellers on eBay might start selling them. It's been possible to buy the 20" LRX style alloy wheels now for about 3 years and my sister has them on her RRS, purchased from one of the big wheel and tyre specialists.
Now that is a shame..... hopefully someone comes up with a creative way to make it happen.

Maybe, but that's something the manufacturers have to abide by. I can't see it stopping anyone selling them as an accessory though and I can't see anyone getting pulled over by the boys in blue if they have them fitted.

Neither would the driver.... as their mirrors would be too small...
