My garage is so tight that I push the car in.  Hopefully that's all I'll
ever use the rollbar for.  I wouldn't be able to open the doors to get out,
if I drove it in.

I don't understand how those of you with garages manage.

I have owned a Midget for neigh on 30 years. I get a garage, I go  
work on the car, (brakes leaking), take it out for a short test  
drive, (across the parking lot and back, it is brakes after all).  
Then I back it into my new garage. Note that this exactly the second  
time I have ever backed this car into a garage. I am watching through  
the back window of the hardtop, I look to my left just in time to  
watch the mirror go flying!!!

Now understand I do not have stock Midget mirrors. I have Vitaloni  
Baby Tornados, not made in at least 10 years. But I like them. I  
managed to snag a set off eBay a couple years ago but now I have a  
mirror I like, and broke, with no way to replace it.

Any one have a source of Vitaloni Baby Tornados???

I found a set on eBay Australia for 111 AUD ~ $86 USD, I have not  
ordered them, but I will. IF this keeps up, I will have more than one  
for the passenger side, and no spare for the drivers side,

Larry
