Hi guys I'm looking at buying a or 2 new exterior mirrors for my '67 beetle. At the moment it has one of the oldschool style bullet mirrors and it is totally useless. I cannot adjust it enought to see anything in it, so it has to go!

I'd rather only have 1 mirror (for the looks) but I'd rather not have a stock one. I like old-school/cal-look, but I don't like the turbo mirrors or the modern crap like that, I was thinking more porsche 912 or something in that style that's actually practical.

Are these mirrors any good?

Thanks

No aftermarket mirror I've ever tried has mounted solidly enough to actually see what is behind the car while driving.
