# 1977 MG Midget Left Hand Wing Mirror
Vehicle Overview
The 1977 MG Midget is the 1500 model, characterized by its distinctive large rubber bumpers.
Sourcing the Wing Mirror
Before ordering, clarify the following details:
Side Identification
Determine whether you need the driver's side or passenger's side mirror. The term "left hand" can be ambiguous depending on whether your car is:
- US-spec left-hand-drive
- UK-spec right-hand-drive
Specify which side of the car the mirror actually mounts to, or whether you mean driver or passenger position.
Mounting Type
The 1977 Midget wing mirror could be either:
- Round chrome "wing" mount mirror — mounted on the front wing itself
- Door-mounted mirror — mounted directly to the door
Identify which mounting type your car uses, or describe what remains on the vehicle.
Restoration Standard
Consider your restoration approach:
- Concours restoration — requires correct style and finish for originality
- Driver/functional restoration — pattern parts are acceptable for safety and usability
Wing mirrors are not safety-critical components, so reproduction parts are viable for non-concours builds.
