Parking Pole Mirror

[Mr. Flibble]

I saw a parking pole mirror set from Japan for the Series 2 L400, but it was insanely expensive, and I own a series 1.

I got to thinking, looking at it, that it would be possible to use a motorcycle handle bar mirror on the end of a bar, and that way you would not only have a parking pole, but a mirror that let you see the front of the van at the same time.

I have not actually tried this yet - as I don't own a parking pole. However, I believe that the idea should work. What do you guys think? Would a curved mirror be better than a flat one? (I am guessing so).

Canadian tire sells cheap curved mirrors that would clamp to a parking pole as well.
