Rear view mirrors

[Rick Ferrucci 17]

Hi everyone.  

   Has anyone put rear view mirrors on your Horse? I don't mean on a front end loader or enclosed cab. Did you make a bracket? Did it work on both sides? Were you able to get to your snow plow turn lever? How do they work for you?

Anybody have any pictures?

I've put it to serious consideration.  

 

Vibration. A LOT of vibration.  

 

Might be ok on a twin engine tractor but our older single cylinder rigs would likely make any image in a mirror unusable.  

 

If you wear glasses go to a bike shop. 

I've used the tiny cyclist's mirrors in the past.  

Those are excellent.

I gave it a try once, the vibration made it useless. I like the idea of the cyclist's mirror

I have a small adhesive eye ball swivel jobbie on the loader but can't remember it is there.

Go for the gusto and blow $50 on a WiFi backup camera from the jungle site!

Mount the screen on the hood ahead of the steering wheel and the camera on the back of your seat.

This is how I did it on my tractor with a loader, but don't see how to easily add one to my !
