7th gen mirrors on my 6th!

OK the mirrors are on! I only hooked up the blinkers for now. I am waiting for the wiring diagram for both mirrors to hook up the rest. Thanks again to willism86 for bringing this mod up and hooking me up with the EBAY link!!







They fit really well considering they are from a completely different car!!

They don't fit perfect, but they fit very well and look great. Nice work.

I did say they don't fit perfect, that's obvious since they are from another car, I was surprised that they didn't need to me modded to fit (other than re-drilling) the holes.

MaxJ04, when you say "elongated" I do see what you mean. They are quite a bit bigger than the OEM mirrors, but after driving it around they don't bother me at all. Most of all I love having clean blinkers in the mirrors!

Looks really nice J. They give your car a very classy and clean look man. Did you buy them black? How much did you pay for those?

They look really nice. Fits pretty well too...as long as you're not right up on the car, it looks stock. Do they have a power folding feature as well? If so, do they still work?

The blinker setup is nice otherwise the mirror does seem a bit long, planning on getting them painted to match the body?

Nope, keeping them black to match the rest of the theme...

I think it looks pretty good, but I think the stock mirrors painted black would be a better look for your theme. Still, the turn signals are cool! Too bad they didn't just put them in stock for the 6th gen in the first place.

I love the shape but maybe it is the pics that make them unproportionately big on the car.
