Has anyone out there tried to buy towing mirrors to fit the New Zafira, Vauxhall dont list any to fit, The Caravan Club cant help. With all the great experience out there im sure that someone has done it. If you have, who make them.

Thanks[:D]

I was going to do a link to a previous posting but if you click on "Search" and enter TOWING MIRRORS under caravans there are 15 threads on there where you may find what you need

Good luck

Thanks again

Thanks Stu, The NEW Vauxhalls by the way have a different mirror for every model except for the Zafira, odd way to run a ship

Robchasburn.  I have fitted suction mirrors to my 04 plate vectra and also to my daughters 53 plate zafria, no problems at all, I'm sure if you go to your local caravan dealer they will let you try one before you buy. they are fitted in about 30 seconds. Best of luck.

and if you have internally adjustable mirrors on your car, you can adjust the suction mirrors from inside.

I used to to have a Zafira and I bought some really cheap ones from Towsure. They are universal the type which has the adjustable rubber strap that clips on to the Zafira's outer mirror shell they work fine. You wont be able to read the guys number plate as he's coming up but you will see him coming. You get slight vibration but as I said you just need to know he's there.
