I just purchased a BCW replica and would like to add mirrors to the fenders. I see that there is a plug on the fender that I assume is removed to accommodate the addition of a mirror. Can someone tell me which mirrors I should buy to do the job! Thanks!
Moss Motors sells nice Lucas replica fender mirrors. Suggest you get the ones with convex rather than flat glass.

Slowly coming back from the ashes...I second Kent’s recommendation!
I have those mirrors on my TD.You also need two of the gaskets that go between the mirror and fender.Item #22, part number 280-140 on this page:Paul Mossberg

I think the gaskets come with the mirrors?
Anyway, x2 on the Moss ones. Not too expensive and they’re right. They work.
If you decide you need something more conventional & modern-like, check back. There are cheapish motor cycle mirrors that can be mated to the windshield bracket with a single nut and a washer. Looks pukka & like 1/8 the price of the kit you usually see peddled for TDs. I run without mine usually (so I can fold the windshield flat more easy & quick, but put them on for long runs & when the top is going to be up.
I just can’t remember if the Honda or Yamaha ones were the ticket….
Oh, and: welcome new member Donna!

The gaskets come with the single post mount Moss mirrors. I don’t know about the one higher up the page…Early FF TDr on 69 VW pan

Mirrors ordered. Thank you all for your help. I’m loving my new car! Can’t wait to have the mirrors added.
