Hello to everyone,

Maybe it's a stupid question, but unfortunately did't find any topic here or
anywhere else so if some of you know and can help me with the following
question I will be grateful.
I want to find a mount solution for my phone but to be "hidden" in one of the
mirror holes on my Vespa GTS 300 ST.
I relocate my mirrors from the standard positions to the handlebars and I saw
in a video in Youtube this Italian guy that find's a solution to mount his phone
in one of the mirror holes.

Is there anyone that know how to do that?

Take a normal mirror, shorten the mirror arm to the length you require and fit a mirror mount of your choice.

Alternatively, you can cut an M8/M10 with a right-hand or left-hand thread on a rod. Which size depends on the year of manufacture, right/left-hand thread also depends on the year of manufacture and on which side you want to mount.

Use the original rubber grommet to cover the hole.

In any case, the mount shown is from SP Connect:

One of the mirror holes has a normal thread, the other mirror has a reversed thread - so you might only be able to put something together for a single side.

Ali has some different mounts. You would either need to find one of the same diameter.

Hopefully someone else has a better link, but this is a good starting point: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005105280513.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.pcDetailTopMoreOtherSeller.1.4eea2983wLWZE3&gps-id=pcDetailTopMoreOtherSeller&scm=1007.40050.354490.0&scm_id=1007.40050.354490.0&scm-url=1007.40050.354490.0&pvid=5276860f-a45a-4467-a812-667636a701b6&_t=gps-id:pcDetailTopMoreOtherSeller,scm-url:1007.40050.354490.0,pvid:5276860f-a45a-4467-a812-667636a701b6,tpp_buckets:668%232846%238111%231996&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21GBP%2125.67%216.34%21%21%21227.19%2156.16%21%40211b600517067103197543561e10e0%2112000031676876577%21rec%21UK%21%21AB&utparam-url=scene%3ApcDetailTopMoreOtherSeller%7Cquery_from%3A

Another option might be getting one of these bars that fits under the handlebars (into the holes used for the windscreen). You then have a horizontal bar to mount a more conventional phone mount to:

Just found on SIP:

(Chrome) https://www.sip-scootershop.com/en/product/smartphone-holder-mirror-hole_6880105S

For left side, does not fit GTS MY23 because of different diameter (or adapter needed)

Nope! Pay attention to the direction of rotation, the Vespa has on left side a left-hand thread (and on right side a right-hand thread). The SIP thing is for left side.

But basically, the GTS MY23 requires an M10 thread, so the adapter should be from M10 (male) to M8 (female).

I did say something "like" this. Sometimes the wording is important for searches.

Only some Vespas have left-hand thread on the left-hand mirror - none of mine ever have.

Change to left-hand thread on left side was latest on 2019 (with HPE). As OP has a SuperTech it must be a left hand thread on left side.

Thank you for the help, this looks promising but did anyone use it actually and if YES could he put some pictures here if it's possible.
