SouthendMike Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Can anyone recommend a panoramic rear view mirror that will fit the rather bulky rear view mirror on my 6 year old A6 Avant please? I bought one last year, but the moment I tried to fit it over the current mirror, the spring-loaded clips on the new one broke off as they couldn't accommodate the bulk at the rear of the Audi mirror. Does anyone have a recommendation they could offer, perhaps one that has "elastic" fixings? Many thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 This looks like what you're after? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PANORAMIC-WIDE-REAR-VIEW-MIRROR-ELASTICATED-STRAP-FIXING-/191258582424?hash=item2c87e65d98:g:4ZUAAOSwk5FUxh5j Out of interest, do you find it a significant improvement using one of these? Are there any drawbacks - vibration, movement etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthendMike Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Hi James - thanks for this - it SEEMS like what I'm after - time will tell when I try to fit it!! I'll let you know. As I've never had the opportunity to use one of these before, I'll have to report back re vibration, movement etc. when I've had it on the car for a few days. Thanks again - Mike .

James Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Fair enough. What made you decide to try one? Are you finding the rear visibility in the A6 isn't that great? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthendMike Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 The visibility is fine - it's just that I have difficulty turning my head round sufficiently following spinal surgery a couple of years ago! Here's hoping that mirror does the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Fair enough - could have done with a reverse camera then? Let me know how you get on with the mirror Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
