Mirrors
Who can point me too or give me information on the rearview mirrors. There was a vendor who had an ad here but I can't remember who it was.

I would like to have for number of reasons. In the rv7 your view is block behind you. I would like them for taxing, formation, parking.

Anyone have any suggestions for mounting a rear-view mirror on a tip-up? One downside is that I have no roll bar to clip/velcro/rivet/screw/glue a mirror to. Are there any suction-cup mounted mirrors?

Here is what you are looking for I believe for blind spot mirrors on the roll bar.

An option for mirrors and various other accessories (like an iPhone) is to use a RAM mount. They have a bunch of different types, including suction cups, that seem to be robust. I just got a setup for my iPhone.
