Aftermarket Side view mirrors?

I have to replace the entire assembly on the passenger side.

Has anyone had any experience with getting aftermarket side view mirrors? OEM mirrors are $230 and aftermarket are like $40ish.

Just curious if anyone has had any problems with aftermarket mirrors, any noises, rattles, poor alignment... anything?

Thanks!

I've replaced a lot of side mirrors in my day and cheap aftermarket stuff usually comes with very poor fitment. Check local wreckers if the ones from carguy don't work out. I have a set of 2002 black heated, power mirrors for sale for $50 plus, unfortunately, likely outrageous shipping from Canada to you. They are OEM though.
