Yep, glass faced backwards so that you can see the front of the car your racing against.

What do you mean? If you need mounting directions, I happen to have an original drawing/description for the 333-model. When it comes to where on the door you should mount it, I can't help you.

That depends the position which you look for?? If it's just for the look or to be functional (to see inside)??,I put mine to see inside not just for the look but it is adjustable

Hi!
Here´s a pic of the position of my Talbot mirror.

One thing about Talbot is that there are lots of different designs, they vary in styles of the "base mounting" as well as in complete dimension, etc. Some of the mirrors allow to be adjusted in "angle", some of them are fixed.
I think not every Talbot fits a bug-some of them simply are too large.

Hi Fabian,

are these all Talbot mirrors? The middle and lower one look like Secura Sprints from Belgium. Let me know what brands they are – I am a kind of racing mirror pervert.  Grin
Cheers,

Georg

Welcome Dokke!

I think I satt by my car with the drill in hand, for 30 minutes before I drilled the holes... good luck!

i finally got my 333 delivered by mister postman yesterday  Grin

it's such a beauty, even my dad "the purist" likes it a lot!  Wink the shiny chrome, the green dot that collocates with my java green. sweeeeetttt  Smiley


tried to test fit it last night, and i have decided to mount it a little higher than kurt e.g. has done, though i won't be able to fully open my vent window anymore. but i'll have great visibility, the mirror glass is larger than my standard mirror. but we'll see.

my only concern is whether i'll get the holes aligned perfectly as was shown on page 1...
