LL-2-11 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I put some electrical tape around the hinge of the side mirrors. First I was afraid, how it's may looking. But now I think it even looks better, because it covers the rust! Tape belongs to motorsport like water to cooking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[email protected] Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Ads--Not the stick type --thanks I'm thinking (this where things go south) I could drill a neat hole in the liner and get to the nut with a socket. I hate to do this but I also would hate to have to pull the side panel off--any other thoughts?? If after you stick a small piece of grey duct tape nobody will notice ...excep you ;-) Tam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephanie plum Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Quote function doesn't seem to be working?? In answer to bruss' question - they are from the Fazer (sp?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotusbert Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Well people, I had the same problem last weekend with these mirrors, so I tried to tighten them. suddenly had my mirror in my hand...this mirrorbody is fixed to the stalk with a balljoint, but the tightening nut + spring is located in the mirrorbody behind the mirrorglass... so I tried to get the glass out of the body by putting the plastic body in very hot water to soften the plastic, as it is a snap assembly. In the end, altough I was very carefull, the glass did break...so end of story. A quick search on the net and with the info that the mirror is from a Yamaha Fazer( thanks to this forum !) I came out by the manufacturer (VICMA) of these mirros wich is Spanisch( does that say/mean something ??) You can download the complete catalogue here http://www.vicma.es/...http://www.vicma.es/catalogo/descargas/categorias.php?id=4 but this should be the one (see picture) so of to the yamaha dealer or an order over here, only 49 euro for a pair ! http://www.onlinemot...http://www.onlinemotoparts.com/catalog/pair-yamaha-fzr-fazer-1000-0104-p-68.htmlmirror 211.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefix Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Hi to everyone! it is possible order a new 2-Eleven from Lotus with the original stick rear view mirror (F1 style) instead the new version like a motorbike style? Thank you very much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ads_green Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Not sure - best place to ask would be your nearest dealer. Worst case you can retrofit the mirrors but you'd need to fill/plug the holes for the old ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanie plum Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Stefix - why would you want to? They were replaced because they were completely useless! And is it just me or is the quote function not working?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefix Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Yes, it's only for they look nicer and the car seems to be more racing I'll ask directly to Lotus but if they were replaced because useless, i think there is a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex L Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 Time to resurrect this thread, is there anything better to replace the standard mirrors with? My nearside drops when driving so is completely useless. Is the best bet to buy a replacement Fazer mirror from eBay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 From reading back in this thread the Fazer ones do seem to be the best option but to be fair, I'd imagine any bike mirrors would fit as there are tonnes of options for thread adapters etc. Might be worth a browse of a few bike spares websites? Fazer mirrors are £22 btw http://www.mandp.co.uk/index.php/default/catalogsearch/result/?q=yamaha+fazer+mirror Quote 88 Esprit NA, 89 Esprit Turbo SE, Evora, Evora S, Evora IPS, Evora S IPS, Evora S IPS SR, Evora 400, Elise S1, Elise S1 111s, Evora GT410 Sport Evora NA For forum issues, please contact the Moderators.
