I really am impressed for the price.

The cable is actually very stiff and stays in the shape you bend it to in order to put it where you want it.

It's a shame about the right angle mirror, I need to have a better look at it, and possibly experiment with how far to screw it onto the head. When I tried to look at the valves using the mirror I could get a good quality image of the valve stems but not the valve seat area as it was too close to the mirror.
The head and mirror were of course pushed through the plug hole.

One mod I'm going to make is to put a short length of heatshrink at the back of the head to taper it into the cable.
A couple of times the back of the head got caught on the inside edge of the plug hole and needed far more wiggling than i was happy with to get it out again.
