Bongo Fury

Hi All ,

Well while lately ive been taking out the bongo to keep it in good running order so its ready for the up and coming trips this year . However some kind soul decieded to get so close to have a look at the bongo that they caught my wing mirror and so my glass was smashed out

Luckily the actual wing mirror is still intact , but missing the glass but im not sure if i could just replace it with a sticky backed glass or does it need some sort of bracket to attach the glass to the wing mirror .???

hopefully you can help .

cheers

You need the plastic clip that fits onto the four corners ideally, was it not on the ground with the smashed mirror ?

hi G8dhe ,

thanks for the reply , i didnt see anything but i might go check again .

can you get replacement clips ?

cheers

Looking at your mirror I would say (not 100%) that you need the backing plate that the glass is stuck/clipped onto then it Snaps into the electric mirror adjusting pivots . As I say not 100% sure on these vehicles but this is the case in a lot of vehicles.

I've not heard of spare ones, but never needed to find one, if anyone could supply it will be Bongo Spares http://www.bongospares.co.uk/
or any of the normal suppliers not seen them listed in the shop either.

well ive been to have a look again but no luck , so it looks like im going to have to source a new one !

The Bongo Fury shop sells the glass for £36.00,for that price I would imagine that it will be the full Monty, glass and backing plate? you could contact the shop to find out.

Thanks teenmal I was thinking of looking in the bongo shop .

Do we as members get any discount ?

Cheers

As per the latest email update from Mission Control, you get 12.5% discount as a paid up member when entering the code at the checkout stage.

thanks for the advice on the discount as i was unaware of this , however the item is still expensive for what it is ?

any other suggestions ?

cheers

Ebay

evening ,

ive looked on ebay , however nobody wants to sell just the backing plate and mirror !

looks like i will haveto bite the bullet and just pay £35 for them via the bongo shop .

also how hard is the actual wing mirror to remove /

cheers

Do you need to remove the mount itself ? The new mirror if it comes with clip attached just pushes on.

No i dont need to remove the whole assembly , however i was toying with the idea of making the wing mirrors colour coded ?

Perhaps Ian at the Bongo Shop could advise if theirs comes with clips on (price suggests it might) as i'm not sure all do.
