I was able to go riding for the first time with my 2019 Defender XMR and loved every minute of it, except when looking in my rear view mirror the snorkel is right in the way! It was hard to see other riders in our group in the mirror due to the snorkels being in the middle of my viewing area.

Anyone else had this problem?  If so how did you fix it?

Check out the side mirrors to see if they will fit in the defender builds section?🤔

Side mirrors won't work in the trails we ride.  Thinking of reversing the snorkels, so that it has a gap.

The side mirrors fold tight against the cab and you can push them back to the detent easily, so even if you forget to fold them in you probably won't damage them with an impact from the front? If your front wheels fit the opening it won't damage your mirrors. FYI😉

so i just picked up a 2020 xmr and im waiting for my rear view mirror but i already removed the risers and dropped the snorkel heads down even with the belt exhaust head.  i figure if im that deep ive gone way to far.

Yup, just take the CVT intake and the engine intake and remove the offset pipe so they are both level with the CVT exhaust

By the way , a big thumbs up for the side mirrors, I have them and they get beat daily and still hold position ...highly recommend them...very durable.   Was thinking seriously of installing back up camera and Dash monitor.
