Hi all
I’ve been meaning to remove the interior rear view mirror for a bit now I thought it was a bit on the large side and even when it was put up in its highest position still restricted the view through the windscreen
As I had no need for an auto dipping rear view mirror (I have limo tint in the rear windows to keep the dogs cool in the summer) it made the job a bit easier so for a couple of quid from the scrapyard I bought a mirror out of a Ford ka and bolted it to the shroud around the camera
The field of vision is now a lot better as you can see from the photos below
Cheers
Ian

I have some difficulty understanding what the problem is :unsure:
Rear view mirror is absolutely fine in my MG5.
Are you exceptionally tall or something?

Hi
Not really 5’10” but I have short legs and I have the seat in it’s highest position for a comfortable driving position so I am fairly close to the dash so the oem mirror was blocking a fair bit of visibility through the windscreen

Yep I was constantly do the same thing that’s why I’ve done this mod

What have you done with the power supply to the mirror, or am I being daft thinking there was a power supply for the mirror ?

Hi
The connector has been taped up and tucked away behind the shroud
