What car do you have? FFR, Superformance, Backdraft, etc,? The reason I ask is that all use the same wing screw pattern except Superformance.

No big deal, I adjust the screw pattern to accommodate the Superformance."


PS: Attachments mentioned above were pictures, unable to post with above reply
Hi Don, is there a name and email address I can use to communicate with at the Dream Car Company. These mirrors look crips and clean. Do you know if they are heavy duty chromed or made from aluminum?

Only one issue, do these mirrors move when the wind wing moves, seems like , so how to make a permanent fix? Is such a fix available?

Thanks, tin-man

Additional Info from Terry:

" It would be no issue in matching the screw pattern if different. Superformance is the only manufacturer or whoever they are supplied from that has been different.

3/4” center to center is what is standard and 13/16” center to center is Superformance. If yours is different I can accommodate. "

The intent of the design is to not impede windwing movement. When installed correctly the mirror and wind wing will swing away when in use with side curtains. When installed correctly the mirror and wing will be very stable, and hold it's setting. The design does not require additional drilling of the windshield post if you do not desire to do so.

This kit works with the installation styles of the wing.

This kit does not impact concerns of the purist as it can easily be removed for shows if needed or for those who are you selling your car. Remove them and place them on your new car.
