I bought some Rigid side-light/blinker mirrors for my Talon, and was completely disappointed in the mounting clamp they provide. Wouldn't stay put no matter how tight you put them. (my bad for not reading the reviews regarding the mounts prior to buying!).. SO, I designed and made some real mounts that made the mirrors useable. I made 10 sets, since I figured I could just as well make a few extra while making my own.. They ditch the inner/ worthless composite claw clamp, and are made of 3/8" thick billet 6061. Just had to source some longer cage bolts, machine some spacers, and longer mirror bolts to go through the mounting plate into the mirror itself.. Very satisfied with the result.
