12 " mirror cell

I was going to buy one originaly but found little around ,the UO cell looked ok but i thought I'd have problems trying to mount it to a square frame .
design wise I stayed away away from a sling type cell,and wanted to be able to remove the mirror and cell at once throught the top of the mirror box so didn't go with a fold down tailgate .

So this is what i came up with , six point at 60%
mirror glued or velcroed to cell.
(though i have left enough overhang for edge supports instead) .
the springs may be a little long i think but i'l wait until its bolted together
and have another look , at near full compresion the base of mirror box to bottom of mirror is about 40 mm i think .

I have had a little doubt creep in lately about how well this will work
what do you think ?

take care
graham
