A question put to all non auto mirror folder peeps....

Has any non folders (Freda owners?) ever had to replace the glass & noticed the interior set up like this...? :-k

There is a valid point! :wink:

=D> =D> Dave, i was hoping you would see this... :wink:

If you could confirm this.. Or even take some pics of the inside with a shot like this... [-o<
I'm figuring the internal of the non folder version looks like this, with the plastic spindle for the final drive cog attached..

Image

Yes, i suffered the old floppy mirror break #-o & after looking around after a fix attempt (4 times!) :roll: I totality refused to pay the "going rate" [-X for a used one...

The top bust too! ](*,)

Image

I did get lucky & find a replacement a third the price!! :P

But i have a theory the gear mechanism, motor & loom can be swapped to a non folder... Future reference! :wink:
