One thing that you can consider is to use the tailgate mount of the scope
as the bottom of a typewriter type box to close and seal the mirror against
contamination.  Paint the box a different color or use different wood to
identify which side is up so that the mirror is setting on its back when
stored.  Probably the best way to store a mirror as the thing is fully
enclosed and should be able to take a good shock without damage. Bob May
