    I've never dealt w/ them....or you can purchase directly from the AllView website.

    BTW--I've used one of these for years and highly recommend it.

    Thanks for the link. I tried all of the sites on the dealer links and none sold the mirror. The right side of my Wink mirror fell down during my feature race at Pocono on Sunday. Fun times!

    The right side of a wink fell in my lap during a 24 hour race. Ripped it out and never used a wink again. Between the buzzing and vibrating image(s) they are truly a POS.

    ok, got through to Autobarn... they have some big phone system issues (person didn't seem to care who I got through to). I learned the secret is to just stay on the line when the first "menu" is given, wait for it to ring through into another menu listing options. The second menu gives different options and it actually goes to someone. Not sure if the first menu is a night option that they forgot to turn off or what but if you hit any of the options it goes into a voicemail that isn't checked!

    Anyway, with that said, they do not have any Allview mirrors in stock and none are on order. They get calls 2-3 times a week for them but it looks like the manufacturer might not be making them or hasn't made them in a while. If anyone discovers them in stock let us know... going to go with the longacre one for now from Summit Racing and I will let you guys know what one I like better (my brothers allview or the longacre one I order for my car).

    Dave- thank you for the info... didn't work out this time but in general you always nkow where to get the good stuff!

    If worse comes to worse, I think you can get the street car/clip-on version on Amazon. Might want to go that way and rig up a better mount.
