[Healeys] Wing Mirror Placement

[Wm. Severin Thompson]

On a big Healey, the best mirror placement seems to be 18" forward of the
fender door joint, and 1" down from the fender bead. It seems be the best
combination of a lot of factors.

Thanks for the reply.

I use them there because I can see much more behind me with the convex
lenses, and I don't have to turn my head.

The big problem is when they get bumped. It is hard to adjust them. One
suggestions was to glue them in place. I'm not so sure that is a good idea.

I solved the problem on by Bugeye by carrying a large cane handled umbrella.
The Sprite was small enough to reach the driver's mirror for adjustment.

Thanks again,

Jack
