The mirrors on mine, and I think most coaches, do mount directly to that 2-3" wide windscreen pillar. It's a strong area of the structure that all buses have, so no reason to complicate things I'd have thought.
We raised the roof on ours 10 inches, so, I dont think space will be a problem. The mirrors on our gmc mount on the side, and we have bumped our heads a few times. Also, as some of you know, we work out of ours, and we will prob. retire with the new one. So, we want the mirrors to be in the best spot, and it is a plus if they look nice too.
Does anyone have any info on this style mirrors. We need to purchase some for the conversion we are doing on our Dina. I know they arent cheap, but, good mirrors are important. Does anyone else have these and if so, where did you purchase them, and what was the price?
