Aloha Folks! Been bogged down with a real bad case of the flu so I haven`t checked out the forum in a couple weeks. Anyway..... I did manage to get my motorcycle learners permit, and my Ice Bear Cyclone came in last week.
Unlike my Ice Bear Q6, the assembly was pretty crappy with panels and parts of the dash not aligned very well. Oh well.
Anyway, it came with one of the mirrors broken. Not the actual glass part of the mirror, but the arm. Once screwed in, the upper part of the arm (it`s two pieces) the connects to the actual mirror wont line up correctly once tightened. It also sound like something is broken and moving around inside the mirror housing.
I have an appointment for a safety inspection in a few days, which i need in order to get it registered here in Hawaii, and im afraid that it wont pass inspection.
I tried swapping the mirrors with ones off an old GY6 moped, but the screw is too small. What size would fit?
Should I be looking for motorcycle mirrors?
Thank you in advance!

Take the threaded stem to a MC shop match the treads and it's done,,, as a side note if you like the originals look better contact Jim @ rapid repair,, he's an icebear dealer I'm sure he'll have a line on getting you original parts,, but at least with the spare you'll pass inspection ,,,& congratulations on doing things correctly ( getting your permits and all in order)

Thanks Cyborg. I ordered a pair of 10mm motorcycle mirrors and they should be here on monday. I really do hope they fit. If not, I`ll contact Jim because I kind of like the look of the stock mirrors, even though they feel like cheap plastic LOL.
