Free to good home.
Pair of new rectangular mirrors removed from my newish +4 (07)
I prefer the round version.
Collect or p&p.

Eddie - don't blame you for ditching the standard mirrors! I swapped mine for round ones after the first week.

Anyone got a scooter? They can have my 'square' mirrors as well!

Interesting, my nearside mirror has a good view of alien spaceships but is useless for seeing what I just missed, does the round mirror have more adjustment?
On the whole I prefer to see the road behind

I had problems setting up my nearside round mirror to see anything useful, until it was gently and politely pointed out at BHM that the whole arm could be clicked into different positions (hard to explain without the car to hand) and everything dropped back into view.
I had been worried about using too much force before. Is this the problem with yours? The round mirrors provide a wider view, rather than showing a different target area.

Paul, thanks for the tip, when I had the car it did have a view that was appropriate so chances are my kids found the method by messing, I wondered if someone had added a spacer which might have dropped out, I'll ask.

UEREKA!!!
Thank's Paul for the tip.
I wonder how many Morgan owners have changed the mirrors
without discovering the rachet adjustment on the lower arm.
The rectangular mirrors are both ok now with good rearward vision.
Think I will leave the round versions in place though and keep the others as spare.
Eddie.

No problem. I am pleased that others can now benefit from my public shame and humiliation at the dealers.
