does anyone know where Morgan sourced the door mounted mirrors for the S1 Aero?

I thought (wrongly...) that they looked like generic Mini Metro/Lotus Elise/MGTF but I'm not so sure now.

I need to replace one of the mirrors - only the actual reflective glass 'inner' - and the Lotus one I ordered is too big so will have to go back.

Any help with this appreciated.... thumbs

Have a feeling the same mirror may also have been installed on the Citroen CX.

Cheers

yep; that looks like the one - albeit with a few bits of alloy added by Morgan!

I'm guessing that is the '96-'08 ,Mk 1 Ford Ka...?

Thanks for the swift response all thumbs

Series 1-4 are all Ford KA mirrors. They come from Ford matt black so when I changed mine on the series 4 due to the plastic thread wearing out I didn't bother repainting!

I have two spares from the factory in the garage. Drop me a private mail and I'll send you one for the cost of postage.
