Bruiser Side Mirrors - How Much?

[violetmind]

I'm trying to look for a pair in good condition. Doesn't have to be mint but as long as they're in good condition, I'd be interested. Problem is, I don't know what they're worth in today's crazy vintage RC market. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Thanks mate. Are they hard to find? Do you think that is a reasonable amount to pay for a pair?

THanks again

Bruisers only came with one mirror - left hand side. If you can find one you'd probably pay $30. There is a TC member (Cul-tech) who makes alloy repro ones for both left and right sides.

Oops...you learn something everyday. Thanks for the advice. I always thought they came in a pair but never saw one in person with both side mirrors. I just thought they broke off while the owner was running them.

Thanks!

I think you guys may be a wee bitt off on your cost estimate. I have seen the mirrors sell for more than $100. It's a rare piece becuase most of them broke off. Since the re-re of the mounty body, you may find one cheaper but then you still need to source that oh so hard to get l bracket.

As for the Cultech mirrors, I highly recomend them as they are super sweet. http://www.tamiyaclub.com/pictureframe.asp...002201255_3.jpg

Wow....this is scaring me...big time. More than a US$100 for one mirror......ouch! I guess when you compare it to the overall cost of the bruiser, it still might be justifiable....might be....might be. But US$100 can get you alot of things in the RC world....sigh...this is depressing.

I don't think the new hilux will affect this price, because the mirrors are totally different. I still have one original mirror laying around, not sure if I'll sell it or put it on the new hilux. But when I sell it I'll let you know.

Thanks, that's nice of you to keep me in mind. Hopefully the price tag will be way below the US$100...
