    Sounds like it fits her "voice over" character, Greta, very well!
    I digress. ;Dr;

    I'll try to work on something

    Since our Vehicross isn't going out of our driveway, I have some time to work on it. Let me see what I can do. My idea is Black naugahide(washable) padded with soft polar fleece (wont scratch) secured with black velcro at the arm, and med weight elastic around the mirrors.

    Someone give me some ideas here. After thinking about it I personally would go practical.... washable, and easy to make and put on. I can go fancy with leather, and leather tie on's. Heck, I can have the VehiCross logo embroidered on it. (I have a great machine.) Work with me here. What do you guys think?

    I doubt it will stay on our VX. Andy was laughing when I was measuring the mirror. I told him to watch it otherwise I'd crochet yellow and black covers for his KC lights..... I don't think I'll have further outbursts from him.

    Perhaps a thought about how it could stay on.

    My Karmann Ghia had a nose bra that had flat pieces of metal (covered with fabric) that could bend and be pinched tight to hold on the to the body of the car.

    Is there enough room between mirror and housing to be able to insert such a thing and bend it to hug the housing at the free end of the arm? THen it would be secure there and have some kind of velcrow attachment at the arm. Know what I am talking about?

    I understand what you are talking about Anita. I have enough ideas to play around with. Now all I need to do is put it together. Daughter has a softball game tonight, let me work on it after the game.
