Talking extend mirrors

Gents, what have some of you done to extend out and raise the mirrors on a ROAD GLIDE, to view more then a shoulder or elbow? What options are there besides a $30 lift kit from HARLEY?? anyone have some clever RUB GOLDBERG ideas? Thanks in advance

go to motorcycle swap meets and look for shovelhead mirror stems. they are about 4 " longer than the newer models.

Considering the work involved to make a mirror extension, $30.00 is a fair price, even for the MoCo.
