Defender mirrors for wide loads

I've got a Defender 130 and would like to fit extra mirrors for a wide (2
metre) load.

Any suggestions other than the Wolf ambulance type which would be ideal, but
the cost is much too high.

There will be some caravan extention mirrors that'll fit I expect,
probably cheaper than the wolf ambulance tupe.
all (I think) wolf's have longer mirror stalk on the left side to see
around the side-mounted spare wheel so the arm from that would extend
your left side, I don't know if the arm is reversable to mount on the
right side also.

cue-beamends-dude with part numbers and prices for the above...


Regards.
Mark.

Sherpa vans have the same type mirrors, and you can get longer ones as
fitted to sherpa lutons/box vans, as the box body extends beyond the cab
width. Not sure about price though, probably as much as wolf ones!

Pair of good towing mirrors e.g. Magnum which I have used on my Defender
will cost about £30.00
