Sausage on a stick AND heated mirrors. Sounds like a win to me.

Russ who created the kit isn't on here anymore. Funnily enough though. I was thinking about trying to see if I could put a kit together.  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Did you read my mind?  s:?: :?: s:?:

looks like there are lots of heated mirror options on ebay, so do we just swap them out and work out the wiring?

Im up for a mirror and bum warmer kit.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Those look like the ones I fitted on mine. Quite a goof fit, and having the foam on the back was quite handy as well. They could do with being 1mm or 2mm bigger all round, but they went in quite easily.

From memory I used 2mm female shrouded spade connectors and 5 amp cable from Halfrauds. Then just chopped it into the heated rear screen circuit.

Would it be a crime to fit something like this?  m http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 20&alt=web m   auto folding and heated with indicator. Bring the car into the new decade!

Next time I have to change one I will see if they will mod to fit, But the fezza mirror is only held on with one bolt and had 2 locating lugs. Peugeot ones might do as well or some Citroen ones

Heated glass would be nice but if anyone does know of a folding mirror that fits that would be even better. Parking on narrow streets makes me nervous.

Nice one Dave, i am really keen on those fiesta ones, they look like the same shape for mounting.  Not sure about holes and studs.  Would be nice to have power mirrors, heated and indicator.  These have puddle lights too which i thought was quite nifty  s;) ;) s;)

I think some of the 206's have power mirrors too, going to start looking at them too.

I wondered about the Corsa vxr mirrors would fit. They look cool for an oem mirror. Not sure what function they have in them.
Also, very expensive 2nd hand mirror.

Stock mirrors fold, it's just you have to get out of the car.

Think of the weight saving.

Hahaha! I am just bored at the moment and the idea excites me. I am tempted to do a weight comparison. Get someone to send me a scrap mirror. I will prob buy some mirrors and then they will sit idle for a year, while i do more important stuff like add a turbo lol!

In terms of weight, i am sure the weight difference will be minuscule, like a few grams.
