    Default Another bright idea...

    As the stainless pipe to make my decat hasn't arrived yet, the old mind started wandering.

    Overtaking can be a bit of a pain for us right hand drive UK owners in a left hand drive car.

    Tried one of the overtaking mirror set ups and it was complete pants....so this is my next plan!



    Connected to an LCD screen on the dash...not bought one yet but something like this:

    ..or slightly bigger:

    Waddya think....will it work?

    Mirror

    No, it'll be in the corner of the dashboard, probably hiding in a little box.
