molten Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Hi AllAny idea where I may pick up a pair of rubber boots/gaskets for a set of bullet mirrors. They are the ones that is shaped like 'canoe' if that makes sense :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I doubt you will find them separately. Besides, my experience of the rubber gaskets for mirrors is that they fall apart very quickly.I used some dark rubber sheet, (a rubber mat) which lasted 12 years and still intact. The gaskets about a year.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molten Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Hi Clive Thanks for that. Do you know if the rubber gaskets have a recess in them so the mirroe base actually sits in them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 From memory they have a small ridge around the edge. I just cut around the base, leaving 1-2mm extra for wiggle space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molten Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Cheers CliveA bit of black silicone around edge of mirror base should create the 'normal' look and cover the small area where the chrome has flaked off. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
