    Tower Mirror

    Not sure how many people are looking for mirrors. But there is quite a few on ebay right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...8974%26fvi%3D1

    I just bought mine from the guy, it was delivered the next day!

      RE: Tower Mirror

      i know theres probly a bunch of em to be had but as one of my friends always says about ebay links, "Chances are that most people from here who would be interested in it have already found it, and are watching it. When you post links to items, every lazy person on the site will start bidding on it and the price will skyrocket for those few people who actually went out of their way to hunt it down."

        That may be the case for ebay auctions. However this is a "Buy me now."

        I personally will vouch for the seller, I baught some tower speaker canisters from him a few years ago and they were of spectacular quality. If I remember correctly he used to work at Boss.
        How about \"Chales\"?

            I won't say what I paid........but I did the "best offer" deal....and saved quite a bit of money. The mirror came a day later and to say I was impressed would be an understatement. now I haven't actually put it on my tower (Memorial Day Wknd I hope). But based on what he was asking versus what most of the "major players" want it seemed like a good deal. How hard could it be to make, set up a template, cut it out on a water jet and you have a mirror.

              tower mirror

              I'm curious to know how easy it was to install your mirror? Also, can you raise and lower the tower with the mirror attached? Lastly, how do you like it now that you're using it. I'm inclined to order one provided you're happy with it. Thanks for the advice.

                RE: tower mirror

                I purchased this mirror a few weeks ago and am very unimpressed. 1 of the holes was not tapped correctly, the clamp does not fit around the tower correctly, and the mirror constantly rolls down. After 1 hour on my tower 1 of the screws then stripped out.

                Anyone have suggestions on a better tower mirror?

                    Got a Samson for our 211 and love it. No vibration, easy adjustment. Mounted it on the front leg of the tower to give more room between the top of the windshield and the mirror.

                      I am pretty sure this is the Boss Tower mirror. The seller is also the ones that sells the Boss speaker cans and mounts. Probably the manufacturer.

                      I have this mirror mount. It is not horrible. But not my favorite. I take it down at the center screw to tow with. It does take a certain techique to get it tight. I can do it. But no one else can seem to figure it out. A small piece of rubber on the clamp (Bike tube) and you can get it tight.

                      I will say that I can get the mirror to mount just right with the FCT and the tower bimini so that the mirror is right under the bimini.
