Short of making my own Mount does anyone sell one for the CIPA 180

I use the one in the link below. I had the more expensive one sold by PTM and considered the other sold by Monster.

I really like the one in the link. Connection is firm and not rattling. I believe both the PTM and monster ones perform as well. But, the others hang the mirror from the post. In my opinion the one I linked looks better because the mount is hidden in-line with the post. Fits perfectly with the width of the mirror.

I wanted to avoid any rattle at all. I don't know if there would be any without what I did, but, I put a single layer of electrical tape around the post and a little bit of blue tip lock-tight.

Does any one have pictures of this combo mounted up? I hate the standard mirror and just ordered the CIPA 180 off Amazon for $32. Wanted to see how all this looked mounted up to the arm.

Mine is in my basement for the winter. I can grab a pic tonight. You'll see how perfectly if fits into the bend with the mount I linked above.

Grabbed two quick shots this morning. Using the mount I linked the far edge of the mirror fits perfectly into the bend of the tower arm. Easier to see in the 2nd pic.

Oh and also, in the first picture I had to stand a damn mile to the side so I wasn't in the mirror. You can see how curved the mirror is in the 2nd pic. I would lose the rider in my old factory CIPA mirror. I can see them at all times now.

Thanks for the pics!!!!!

That’s my biggest complaint, anytime my rider cuts out to the right I lose them almost immediately. I’m excited to score this package as the PTM version is awfully expensive.
