Im just wondering wether anyone has tried to mod the corsa mirrors to make them stubby ones like what some of the nova boys do.

Ive got a spare set of mirrors that im going to give it a go on but wanted to see some pics of some done.

Also how would I cut the mirror glass to fit the new smaller hole?

Get a glass cutter to reduce the size of the glass They cut it with a special lubricated knife
