graearea Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 I had a bit of a brainwave and came up with this:they fit into the holes left by the rubbish Caterham mirrors and accepts a Spa or Motamec mirror (Spa mirror is better, more convex).these provide you with MUCH better visibility around you than the big crappy Caterham mirrors. they're sturdy and can be clamped down very hard. they have a hole in them for access to the dreaded Spa grub-screw and I supply them with a set of my friction cups to increase the clamping force on the Spa grub-screw and all the needed bolts.They come in Motamec or Spa fitting, 33 quid delivered and as usual, don't pay me until you're happy that they're worth it.more info at https://uberniche.co.uk/caterham-spa-adaptersthere's already some people using them that seem very happy:these were fitted by Caterham Gatwick.

Spuddy Supersport Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Got the SPA mirrors and hinge block all fitted. What a difference no movement, can see and the mirrors dont touch the screen. That is a nice little touch, well thought out solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graearea Posted July 24, 2023 Author Share Posted July 24, 2023 I've sold a couple of dozen of these things now. they work pretty well with the hinge replacements. If I've sold you some adapters before I came up with the hinge, drop me a line and I'll do the hinges at half price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Bolton Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Looks good! Have ordered a set and looking forward to installing mirrors that are actually usable!!!! Assume it comes with fitting instructions although doesn't look complicated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
