mirrors on Curtis cab?

[jdgreg]

I have a Curtis soft sided cab on my JD 4210. I really need some mirrors, and was wondering what others have done. I see a Universal Mirror Set on Curtis' web site, but I expect they are pretty pricey.

Here's what I did and here is a pic of someone's cub I saved from this site because I liked how they looked.

Thanks Brian. Gives me something to work on when it gets warmer.

I'm watching this thread closely as I I really need some mirrors on my L39 especially when working in close quarters and the desire to not push my retracted backhoe into a building or whatever. Today I had just finished clearing a foot plus of snow for an elderly neighbor up the road who's truck plow is inop. I left his 1/4 mile driveway and was going down the county road at a blistering speed of about 15mph when I had a feeling that someone was in back of me and it turned out that the county snow plow was patiently waiting for me to clear the road. I'd like flat inside rear view mirrors that show the actual distance vs a convex mirror.

Here are a couple of mirror solutions I've done that you may be able to adapt.

Very nice!!! I like the idea of mounting to the FEL posts. Where did you get the mirrors?

Thanks, they're Jeep Wrangler style mirrors I got at J.C. Whitney.

Check some other Jeep sites; saw some cheaper than JC but can't recall which one.
