side view mirrors
Does anyone know what it would take to put different side view morrors on? Mine was damaged so i need to change it, i've got the power fold in mirrors. What's it take to put a different morror on?

all the SEs had black mirrors. the GXEs had body colored mirrors, again with the shape differences between new and old 3rd gens.
sooo, you'll need to specify year and trim when you're shopping for a mirror.
Alll that being said, I've got a 93GXE left side mirror and an 89-91GXE right side mirror. (I bought the 89-91 mirror thinking it would work, but found out afterwards it won't)
the 89-91 mirror is already sanded and ready for new paint. just paint, reassemble and install.
email or PM me if you want one of them.

Last Tuesday my brother broke my right side view mirror trying to quickly park in a narrow parking space in my place. I was considreing getting the later version side views until I read this. Is the base shapped differently that creates a fitment issue?
1992-1994 3rd gens are a bit shorter than 1989-1991 models, dont know if that would affect it
