euro mirrors

Hi Everyone,

Where can I get a pair of euro mirrors.....
Where can I also get a pair of grill fog lites...

Also, what is the best type of exhaust to put on my 308...

Thanks everyone for your help...
Cheers,

Chris.

 

By euro mirrors, do you mean Vitaloni Californian?

If you shop carefully you should be able to get these new for around US$ 50.00 each
(well you can in the UK). Lots of silly prices touted around.

Here's an example in the UK

Italian Car Parts out of Oregon sells new ones.

 

I think he means the Vitaloni Turbo

 

I have a Bell ss exhaust on my 308gtb..... Sounds incredible and almost identical to the sports exhaust option offered by the factory in period, so I have been informed.

 

ref the Bell Exhaust, here is a picture showing my system.

Hi Chris, the answers to each of those questions is the same answer - it depends! (on what year/model of 308 you have).

The mirrors varied over the 308 production run, as did the fog lights, as did the exhaust - the exhaust also depends on if your 308 is a Euro or US car, with significant differences for the quattrovalvole engines.

 

Hi everyone,
Yes...I mean the vitaloni turbo...
I have a 1985 ferrari 308 us....
Where is the best place to buy a pair that would fit on the us cars

Also, the bell exhaust sounds like a good option..but will it fit on a us car?

Thanks for all the help...

Hi Jez,
Great looking car!!

 

Italian Car Parts

Mirror, Vitaloni "Baby Turbo", Specify D/P: #VTUSM $119.95 ea

I have them on my car and don't love them. Swap for CA mirrors?

 

Looks similar to mine Jez. BTW where was that shot taken? Looks familiar.....

 

Do these fit into the stock mirror holes? 83GTS.

 

Baby Turbos are way too small for your car. Perfect for a Ducati .

 

Hi Ian,
The photo was taken last month down at my home town of Sandwich in Kent (Sandwich Bay, alongside Royal St Georges Golf Course). I live in Tokyo at the moment, so don't get back much to drive my cars, but i have the photos to keep me going in the mean time!

The baby turbos are just as big mirror wise as ca mirrors. The holes are not the same and neither is the footprint so you will see the indentation of the ca mirrors some. Holes are covered though.

 

Ah, I thought it looked like the South east corner somewhere!

How are you enjoying Tokyo? Lived there (Roppongi) for a couple of months in 1990 - very hedonistic time! Glad I went but do desire to rush back tbh...

Got Vitaloni 'flag' mirrors on mine but prefer the look of Californias (even though you can see very little out of them) which are pretty cheap in the UK....

 

Original mirrors have the Cavallino on the Housing and are electricaly moveable ... and are "not cheap" ...

Indeed. Ouch!

I wanted "euro style" mirrors for my 328 until I sat in a US 328 with "Euro style mirrors!

They look much better on the car, for sure but, for the job at hand - at least for driving in the USA - the flag mirrors actually allow you to see what's going on.

To be honest, I don't know if the mirrors on the 328 I sat in were oem euro mirrors or they were aftermarket mirrors that might have been smaller than oem euro mirrors.
