Aerial Mirror broken, found inexpensive replacement $20.00

[dan144k]

I am guessing I stepped on my mirror and broke it while working on my boat.

I email Aerial about just a replacement mirror and never got a response. ($178 to replace with arms)

So I found a truck mirror same size, similar mount, similar convex curve (slightly different). Balls mounting bracket different but are the ball is the same size.

Update. New mirror works well, but original mirror had a much wider view and was better for viewing behind with

2nd edit. Mirror actually works great for wakeboarding. For tubing it could use a wider angle convex, but for the price still very happy with purchase

Very nice. Wish you posted a week ago, I just spent $200 on a CIPA vision 180. I like it, but that price is a little hard to swallow...

It took me 2 months of random web searching to find the replacement mirror.
That is why I posted the info. So I could find it again if needed.

That's awesome! My aerial mirror has a scuff on it from rubbing on something in the compartment. I really wanted to replace it, but not for $175. You're the man @dan144k.

Nice work. Aerial can suck it.

What about the mount? I would love this especially as we are starting to finally surf and could use a way to spot that is better than my 6,5, and 2 year olds!

The mount is nice, we have been happy with it. It is nice the mirror and arm are removable for storage and towing.

Only problem I have is the clamp rotates on the tower at times on me, but I will probably just put some grip tape under the mount and that should solve the problem.

I did a similar mod. My new mirror broke off when trailering. I used a 6in bolt and a similar cheap truck mirror. It has been on a couple seasons now. Cam

Just wanted to give @dan144k a Thank You for linking this replacement mirror. Just got one ordered and it fits perfectly.
