I am thinking about installing mirrors on my engine hatches. Has anyone done this? Who sells a mirror that would fit the hatch? What is the downside? Thanks.

have a set in garage going to install this week purchased from fountain they can do plain or tinted on a 35 lighting will post how it goes

How much did Fountian hit you for the mirrors?

What type of material are the mirrors? Glass or some type of plastic?

some kind of plastic. I like mine. I need better picture this spring.

8 days till March

will open tom. and find out 4 sure what they are they were about $325 tinted blue i ordered cabin doors and a few other things. dont know about shipping.

Thanks for the replies. I'll call Fountain. Did you go with the blue tint because of your blue engines?

I ordered mine OEM from Fountain on a 2005 Lightning. There are some issues on expansion when they get warm from the engines. They tend to warp and buckle a little mostly around the edges where they are fastened.

I believe they drill the holes a little larger than the fastners and set them in so there can be some movement. Maybe some sort of fiber washers would help.

Mine are not tinted. When you keep 'em clean, they do give a nice view of the engines. I like 'em!

Might also make sure the screws are not tight, to allow the panels to expand.

Get stainless steel and have it glued on. Mine has been on the boat for 2 years and is perfect.
