Who remembers these gadgets fitted to especially Volvo`s in the Caravan Club circu 1980`s.?
Another must have gadget along with scott stabilizer,plus clip on wing mirrors that stuck out from your front wing by about two foot.!!
Oh and the Windslammer roof fitted wind deflector.

| I have a Retrovisor mirror in my collection. I bought it from an antique/bricabrac dealer who had no idea what it was for. I think mine is in two shades grey but has 2 big suckers fitted for attachment, I doesn't have the small beige panel with 2 knobs like yours. |

I've just been out and brought this visor.
On seeing this post, I googled Retrovisors and found this one on Gumtree. Same photo's in the post and Gumtree.
Turns out the bloke selling it was less than 5 minutes away from me.
So I called him and went round this morning and brought it.

I didn't ask to be honest, but I have his number and he's not a million miles away.

I will get it out tomorrow and put the pic on here, want nothing for it but ideally it would need collecting.

As promised, pics of the Windslammer. It has part of one of the handnuts missing and has the odd mark on it, what isn't clear from the pic is the two Caravan Club stickers near the top edge but I think they will peel off ok. I was given it in 2000, and it had lain unused for several years. If anyone wants it then come and take it away! 
Pete.

I wish you were closer, I'd have it, but I'm in Northampton and you are in Matlock. About a 170 mile round trip...
