Re: Selling: AC Schnitzer door mirrors (LHD only)

They are very nice looking mirrors
Shame they are LHD they would
have been snapped out of your hands on here
Albeit there are a lot of lefties about maybe on other forums 'Coupe'
who buys Andy's LHD Coupe would jump at them being his car is hell red

I cant see the bases for them ?
