One of my complaints about the cab tractors is you can not see if you are spinning your rear tires very well. I installed the external mirrors and adjusted them so that now I can see what my rear tires are doing. You can also see any rear implements fairly well.

I have mirrors and like them a lot,did you mount them inside or outside of the arm that holds the mirrors,I mounted them inside the arm so the trees can break them off a replacement glass part cost $72.00 just the glass.Buy the way if the a tree branch folds back the mirror arm get out and fold it back before they both get folded back or you can not get out of the cab with out going out the back windiow.

minimax, thanks for the tip on exiting the cab if the mirrors get folded back. Is that the voice of experience?

Yes that is the voice of experience,mowing walking trails and got both folded back and was thinking that I would push the mirror out with the door no way,Had to have somebody else pull the mirror out! If they stick out to far you can fold them forward.
