Towing mirrors

Hi all,
I have just bought a FL2 Reg 2008
Does anyone know if the Milenco Grand Aero towing mirrors will fit on this Landrover?
Thanks, Malc.

I just bought some from Van Plus in South Wales and had them shipped to Oz. They also supplied (at extra cost) a set of 4 'V' pads that replace the standard pads. If you look at the Milenco site they recommend these for the FL2. They fit really well.

We're do the V pads sit, my flat pads seem ok, but if these are better then I might upgrade the clamps

Photo maybe Idea Whistle

I've just bought a set of V Pads, they do fit better and you need to give a good pull to get them to move, but never had a problem with the originals, will test early Thursday Thumbs Up

Looks like this

The longer edge grabs the edge of the visor with a much better grip.

I know, how would we remove the mirrors, if we used thread lock Confused

Can't drive with them on without towing, so maybe he has come round and is saying we should tow more Thumbs Up
