Anyone Mount Mirrors on Their BX WITHOUT the Loader?

[robertm]

I’m wondering if anyone has found a reasonable way to mount mirrors on their BX without the loader attached. I’d like to add a set for plowing, but have the front blade with the quick attach sub-frame installed and not the loader.
Magnets on the hood seem to produce shaky vibrating mirrors. Mounting mirrors on helium balloons tethered to the steering wheel presents a whole series of other problems... especially in really cold weather.
Thanks for any replies.

Helium balloons! Never thought of that. I put a rhinohide sun shade on my BX. It mounts to the ROPS. Mounted a small curved mirror to the underside. Works OK but does vibrate a bit.

Maybe fabricate a mounting arm that pins into the loader connection?

Funny you mention this. I’m in the process of developing this type of hookup now.
