106 Track Toy

So I got some S1 manual mirrors off Matt when I went up and got the window mech. I was planning on fitting them but didn't like the all black casing and didn't want to spray them as there textured. So I had a bit of a brainwave and thought about swapping over the manual internals into the electric ones. I had a look on line for a guid but couldn't find anyone that has done it, they just seem to buy whole new units. The main reasons I swapped it over is 1. It's lighter 2. Electric ones didn't work 3. I like a challenge  

I took some progress pics so you can see what was involved. 

Step 1 is to remove the mirror itself

Then fit the manual mechanism

Then refit the S1 Mirror and it was done  so it's and S2 body with S1 manual internals and S1 mirror. May seem like a simple task but I'm really proud of it. Managed to do it without knowing if it will work or even what was inside. Never taken one apart. So have manual mirrors and windows
