Who wishes their BX had mirrors?

[94BULLITT]

The BX's in Europe have mirrors as an option. It would be nice if Kubota offered that option for North America. I thought I would start this thread and see how much interest there is. If it looks like there is some interest in mirrors for the BX I was going to email the link to this thread to Kubota to see if they could offer this option in the US. I know a lot of the options for the European tractors are made in Georgia. I don't know if they would have the mirrors in Georgia or not. I know a few of you guys have added mirrors already to your BX.

Here is a video of a BX with mirrors.

They do much more road driving in Europe. The mirror may be a requirement.

Could someone move this to Kubota owning/ operating?

Been mirrors on tractors for years, my 1971 MF had mirrors and it was required to get plates for road use.

I wish my tractor had a horn, just to get someone attention or get the dog to move.

Strange that the requirements are so low, what lights are required?
Do you have 40, 50 or 60km/h tractors?

I added a couple of 6" convex mirrors to the upright posts of my FEL frame. LOve em! Not only for driving on the road, but mainly so I can glance and them when moving back and forth to make sure nobody or the dog has come too close to the machine. Sure saves a lot of neck-twisting!

Is the mirror for traffic or watching the implement behind you?
