Carbon (RIF) Aeroscreen mirrors vibrating

[green george]

I have two aero screens, one of which is a carbon RIF which I like as it is higher than the Caterham one and therefore deflects more 'debris' and provides more protection.

The problem I have is that the RIF is very thin and I find that the SPA wing mirrors vibrate on the move and therefore are very difficult to use. The thicker GRP aero screen offers less protection but the mirrors are rock steady.

Has anyone else had this problem?  

Can anyone recommend how to dampen this vibration, please?

I had an RIF screen for many years - great piece of kit.

I glued rear wing piping rubber around the mating surface which cut the transfer of vibration considerably. The centre mirror mounting was screwed tight to the scuttle.

I now have a CC version which uses poppers and it vibrates like bu**ery plus it sits proud of the scuttle.

I have one of Richards aero screens a long with his mirrors, and don't have that problem I do have the rubber tubing fitted around the edges.

Me too.
