I have rectangular mirrors on both doors on my 72 TR6 and they work much better 
than the driver's bullet mirror on by GT6.  The GT6 doesn't have a passenger 
side mirror.

Hi All,

Does anyone know if these "square" mirrors work better then the "bullet" 
mirrors on the passenger (right) side of a left hand drive TR6.

Thanks,

Robert 
74 TR6
