MRoss is a great guy, I am sure he would be kind enough to post it here for all the carrier brethren to share.
 Maybe we should have a separate thread on repro carrier parts with dimensions, drawings etc?

Mirrors.
Ben, if you can wait til the next meet, I can lend you one. A Canadian carrier has the mirror mounted on the drivers front plate, a British carrier on the drivers side plate, now some bodies going to prove me wrong??.
Kevin.

If I get a minute I'll do a drawing for the assembly so everyone can use it. I've been promised the stem dimension so it should be the missing info.
Out of interest I've never seen a mirror mounted on the side armour (your turn Kevin) but the vertical stem seems to have moved from one edge to the middle depending on manufacturer. Ben

On the mirrors:
The Desmo one has the 4 screws on the two edges, while the (raydot?) ones have them on the back. (see my pics) On the brackets; I have Two NOS ones at home. One has the stem arc welded to the plate. The other is spot welded. Bruce, yours appears to be spot welded, or are the two parts sweated together?

The Lucas mirror had the screws in back face. Here is a picture of a Lucas one; http://lot-images.atgmedia.com/IB/28...06_155x155.jpg

Lynn.
Regarding your above post #18, my No. 2 Mk II* Cdn carrier had an original mirror still attached when found and I do not recall seeing any maker marks of any kind on it. I eventually found some Lucas MG mirrors and double ckecked the back of the carrier mirror for ID. Nothing. Considering the quantity of mirrors that would have been needed for all vehicle production in Canada during the war, I suspect a Canadian source was in effect somewhere. David
