I want to mount a mirror on my 100 that is used for parades and rides. (Safety concerns.) I have seen a few pictures of tractors with mirrors but, the details are not shown clearly. Does anyone have any pictures of how they or someone they know has mounted a side mirror on their tractor. I could use some good ideas. Thanks in advance, and Merry Christmas to all.

If you really want one that is beneficial, it needs to be BIG. Like something you would find on an older truck, the original west coast style. Also, evry aspect of the mounting brackets needs to be done with rubber to minimize vibration. If it is mounted without any kind of vibration isolaters, you will see nothing but a blur in the mirror.
On my H all I could figure to do was mount a small bicycle mirror clamped to the end of the light bar. It works for what it has to; driving on the highway to parades. I drive 15 miles or so, and it does what I need. I'm sure a much bigger mirror would show more, but it just does'nt fit.
I took a piece of conduit and flattened the ends. Then drilled holes in the ends and mounted a mirror off my head light bar with it on my C. Painted it red and was good to go.
I have seen the same thing done off the fender but I didn't want to drill any holes in my fender. Although I think it would work a little better mounted their.

This is on my 1940 H. The mirror is from a 1976 F100.
