Mirror brackets

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

I've used something very similar. The problem I had, which might be specific to the vehicle more than anything, is I could not adjust the mirror enough before they would hit the support/mount bracket (the flat piece of steel in the middle). I'll go with something more along this route with my current build, I suspect (coudl flip it over if needed to crank the mirrors upward, of flip for the opposite:

and mirrors with the "L" bracket to further increase the distance for unfettered adjustment.

Took some trial and error to get them right. Don't like have extra bracket that's not need.

I should be able to make a spacer to solve that if needed I was looking at the rollbar mounts and thought of making my own door mounts but for the price if they fit these would be cheaper and easier
