Anyone know where to find JDM side mirrors?

I was reading a magazine and they were talking about JDM parts. They mention these side mirrors that fold in mechanically when you take the key out of the ignition. The Parking is tight in japan, so thats why they make them like that. Anyone know where I might be able to find some? They were the sweetest mirrors I have ever seen!

Remember, cars are right hand drive in Japan. So if you did get some JDM mirrors, you wouldn't be able to see with them...

Talk to SYCEFIRO ... I remember him saying he wanted to get some of those mirrors. Don't know if he can though.

I met CEFIRO at the NE meet and talked to him about them. He had them on his car, with Mercedes style indicators. He said he wasn't too keen on getting them b/c they were a bit pricey for most people, like $300.

If the JDM mirror has the same glass shape, you should be able to pull the glass out of your existing mirror and put it in there.

By the way, you can get a JDM-style power mirror switch which integrates the folding feature. It fits in the same opening as the current switch, same harness connector. The **** is moved to the left and the folder switch is on the right.

Cars are both right and left hand drive over there. They all coexist on the streets without too many problems.

I saw someone selling those mirrors from Skylines a while back on ebay.
