Peep mirrors
Hi guys another question LOL hope I’m not being a pest. I bought some peep mirrors for my ‘30 Tudor. Driver side seems to work ok but the passenger side is completely worthless. Looks good but no adjustments seem to help. Any suggestions?

Re: Peep mirrors
I use a convex mirror on the right.
You can see a lot better. John

Re: Peep mirrors
No Lenny! Your'e not being a pest or asking too many questions. The sad facts are that as the old-timers who knew "A"s when they were a more commonly used vehicle, drop off, there's no one to take their place. Our only hope is to trade our information by asking a lot of questions on a forum. Keep on asking as many as you can think of. Someone, neither of us knows will be reading it and using the info.
Good Luck! Terry |

Re: Peep mirrors
OK Jack! You've got my attention! What size metric bolts would that be? 6mm - .240 , 7 mm - 280 Hinge pins are around .250.
