Im getting a bit sick of the massive rear view mirror and was wondering if anyone had one of the Matiz or similar mirrors that would fit and be less obtrusive.... :)

Honesty I still recon the Hanger111 Mirror was the best money I spent on the VX I could instantly see to my left again! After that it would be a Guglielmi Geo, De-Cat pipe, uprated engine mounts and relay 99! Which gets me thinking what was the worst money I ever spent on the VX... gotta be the beautiful 'shadow chrome' wheels I had done that cost nearly £400 looked stunning & got driven no more than 60 miles before the whole car was written off trashing every single one of them... :( Still the colour matched petrol cap & surround found a good home!

That i do mate makes a difference but unfortuntaly your not having that!! Try the guy who is breaking a vx turbo in glasgow he had a post up in the for sale section, he might have one on that, worth a shot.

Do halfords not do mini ones? this might be mine: Mirror

Worth a trip in if one is close

Ive got a matiz one kicking about the house - will take it on sunday if you want. They are very 2009 though - all the cool kids are using halfords "spy on your kids in the back seat" mirrors ;)

The Halfords jobbies seem to all be the same and have a reflective chrome tape int hem rather than actual glass, and things appear blurry :S I've nabbed a ka/fiesta jobbie for £5 from a local scrappy and its perfect.
