[Healeys] Mirrors

After all of the great ideas, I am considering not mounting mirrors at all
and putting a wireless backup camera at the base of the convertible top.  I
can use the trim screw holes for a mounting bracket and not have to drill
holes or modify the car in any way.  Especially since the only time I need a
rear view mirror is when the top is up.  It would also save putting any
additional holes in my new paint job.   I read several reviews where people
have done this when they had poor visability out the rear of the vehicle.
They put the camera on a toogle, to the fuse box and turned it on when
needed.  They got a 20 degree side angle view mounting on the license
plate.  I thought by moving it higher and further up the car, I should be
able to see the corners.  Does anyone have any experience with this?  By the
way, I am aware of the polarity issues, but already know how to correct for
that.



Thanks Mike
