Question.. 12V battery or 9V battery cause the picture says 12V, and text 9V
Any suggestion where I can get the mirrors and how to mount them?

The battery used in the picture was a 9V, but you should use 12V to get the fans to maximum speed. You can just use an ordinary mirror, pry out of a dental check mirror or something. But the mirrors must be small and light, so that the fans can spin them

Where did you get those pots? :-?

DX has them at 7$ shipped, so the deal proposed here is a great one, the separate components will cost you more..
I am looking for a mirror source and a good tutorial on how to mount mirrors on this ATM

I have built one of these myself using a micro controller, and it works great.  I used acrylic mirrors that i modified to be FS, or Front Surface mirrors, where the shiny stuff is on top and not behind the plastic.  This prevents the beam from being partially reflected by the plastic before it gets to the actual mirror
