I would say no.
I don't think the stems are long enough to give you the 15 - 20' of rear view.

So any other views on whether SVA friendly or not?
I have some bike mirrors that don't make the angle very well either :-(
These will be for sale very soon
Darren - it's in keeping with the rest of my car and I really want either carbon or carbon effect mirrors. I've already spent lots of
money @ MAC#1 on nice bits Worth every penny!

LOL - I need 2 that offer me good visibility.
I can't seem to get bike mirrors to do it...
Cheers,
Murray

17 x 5 cm?? i would say you wouldn't be able to see the required amount in them to pass SVA

I used these. No probs
From Europa
About £50 a pair
I think the ones you are looking at would possibly fail on the radius on the glass side of the housing.
Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want!!!

i think those mirrors will be too small, didn't read the blurb but are they emarked and you'd have top trim the surround edge for
radiusing for sva.
On top of whether you could actually see enough to pass the rear vision sva bits aswell..

It says on there in flashing letters, no tax, no vat, no low order fees. They look like the carbon race mirrors which are too small viewable area
though and at 17cm I doubt you'd get the height to see over the rear wing.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I got through my SVA with SPA ones fitted

It was a bit touch and go but the inspector let them through.
