Ford Ranger / Bongo Wing mirror

Post by brorabongo » Mon Jan 28, 2008 4:07 pm

Does anyone know if the Ranger's wing mirrors are the same size as the Bongo's?
Cheers.

Can't say for sure, but I think last time I saw one, the mounting looked different.

I should'nt show this, but I was wondering if this would fit. If so it would not matter about the mounting?

Hi Brora....Don't hold me to this, but i think the ranger mirrors,depending on age,are a bit smaller on the older version,and maybe a little bit bigger than a bongo's on the later version.

At the cost of the cover's its gotta be worth a punt though eh?

Have a closer look at the seller's details though...Why a private listing??? :?

Negative feedback averages one neg every fortnight for the past year.

It's from thailand...easy to chase up if no cover's arrive?

Forgive my cynicism brora,i dont trust easily mate.. Just trying to point out the sellers (in my opinion) less than perfect reputation.

Has anybody on forum got a ford ranger,(or access to one) and could take a few measurements?

there were a ford ranger pick up just down the road from me, which i had a nosey at the wing mirrors a while ago to see if they would fit the bongo, but after a few ganders i decided it would be too much hasstle, as the mounting plate looked different and the adjuster inside was totally different, so i came to the conlusion that the leccy motor might be wired totally different and i am not that up on the leccy and mechanical no how would hang on till i found a pair of bongo chrome mirrors at a good price, i usally pick a bargain up :D , but the search goes on. well i have seen some colour coded white wing mirrors on abongo that looks good so may try hunt some down or simply get mine sprayed :)
