I have had a few people ask me about the mirrors I added especially when I took my tractor in to the dealer for a little warranty work. So I thought I should resurrect this thread on their behalf and also report on how the mirrors are working out after almost a year. First no problems with the install. They have been accidentally knocked around many times by me and by glancing brush during the clearing and burning of a bunch of debris and they are holding up fine.
My only complaint is that they move a little too easily when bumped and I suppose I should look underneath at the ball pivots and see if they can be tightened. They sure do reduce the number of times I have to twist around to make sure my implement (blade, rake or even backhoe) isn't going to take out my greenhouse, a deck support post or whatever! Also nice when grading my long gravel driveway, keeping it on a good line along the ditch edge.
