wingmirrors aftermarket ? lrx style - jos - 04-04-2012 09:27am
does somebody know or perhaps a after-market manufacturer, will bring a LRX-style
much smaller wingmirror ?

Was the LRX "mirror" a mirror or a mounting for a rear view camera?

indeed > that was a camera ! but i like the smaller sporty shape of it
instead of the huge ones now.

Sure I read on here once upon a time that the mirrors had to be a certain size to meet regulations based on the size of the car...no idea if there is any truth in it but I must say that given the awesome design of the Evoque, it does seem somewhat curious that they would put such big mirrors on unless they had no choice!

^^ is true, and was stated way back at the launch when comments were made about the mirrors.
LR we're keen to point out that their hand was forced in the size of them.

Someone might know whether the size of wing mirror a vehicle in the EU must be *sold with* is also the size that legally has to remain on the vehicle.

you would have 3 years use in the UK before you found out at the MOT if you fitted a smaller set to a new car!

My wife is only 5'2",for her they are a huge blind spot.

The size is not required in the states. I wish we had our own spec for the mirrors!

this is no issue, or shall i develop my own aftermarket mirror /?
