$199 doesnt seem like a bad price, as long as the mirrors look good in person.

I saw these before while surfing on the web

PLease keep in mind you keep the original mirrors .. these are covers/shell which sticks(double sided tape) on the stock side mirrors.... you run the wires thru the door panel and tap into the side markers.... looks good

$199 is ok. I believe these come in chrome at least the ones i saw on the web for a cefiro.

$199 seems high to me, especially since someone could just rip them off your car, since they are only secured with double sided tape.

i believe it is a direct replacement of the old mirror .. if you look at the directions on that page, it tell you how to remove your already present mirror and install the new one

i agree with redmaxpa007 if it replaced the whole mirror i could see $199, but its just the cover or shell. that goes over your existing mirror,besides the pictures on the website looks a little fuzzy and the other one doesnt really show the mirror up close in detail. and like i said before these seem pretty easy to steal.

Its gotta be a replacement because you can stick a set of L.E.Ds like a sticker on the mirror... Unless you have to makes holes in your mirror to mount them..

look at instructions # 7 & # 16from custommaxima.com

#7. Place new side mirror shells over existing shell (do not remove backing from double sided tape yet), running the wire between the tabs closest to the door.

.....



# 16. Replace stock plastic shell , leaving just enough wire to make sure the new shell will fit on. (Test a few times before double sided tape is exposed)

... looking good though.... priceless i guess.

Oh my...

$199... What a rip off (no pun intended.)
Just make them yourself.
