Can anybody tell me where I can get mirror arm screws etc, that connect the arm to the body?
I have looked on the thread 'where to go for repro stuff', but the chap does not seem to have any for sale.

Thanks in advance.

Sean.

fax 0231-47-83-57 not sure what numbers you have to add to get through from your end.
This guy also sells Schwimmer and Kubel parts

BeaterBD can probably still supply them?

didn't MarkL make them at some point, or was that only the hinge and arm? (which, by the way, are a really nice reproduction)

I have some of these screws, would they be correct for the mirror arm.

They are M8 and hinged part is 19mm

If I would sell some set of 2 what would be a fair price to ask for the pair.

Please contact the person above if you want to buy some, please don't full the forums with "I'll take one too" type messages.

Thank you.

he's usually at Hessisch or Bad Camberg, he could be at other European shows but I dont go to them (yet).

When you break it down 3,75 euro doesnt sound bad for a screw, but 3,75 euro for a beer is ridiculous Laughing
