i got some for free when i got swiped and somebody following the swiper drove over the mirror they took off and... well, yup.

i just connected wires around and played with them for a bit, THEY WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. however, i got mine so up is down, down is up, etc. other wires combos make them up is left, left is down, down does nothing, or whatever. im trying to locate a set of f1 or vision dc mirrors, the really skinny things. oem mirrors are too big, and spoon knockoffs are junk.

just one of the LOVELY side effects of ebay, you get what you pay for.

and heres another part you'll like: once theyre on, go 40mph or faster. the glass piece inside the mirror housing will flutter like a crack addict on withdrawl. theres a DIY floating around about how to fix this, not sure how good it is.

damn what motor you running? i hit 115-120 and im redlined in 5th, z16z6 w/ a y8 tranny.

offtopic, is the pic you have, your actual car?[some ppl just jack pics]. if so, might i ask about your hood? what brand is it, how long have you had it, and hows it as far as quality?

im looking into a carbon fiber hood, but i dont want the peeling clear issue everyone seems to get.

ahhh, one of them =P i thought only v dubs were prone to the infamous black painted hoods.

you can park on the sidewalk in ireland? nifty! must reduce the amount of drunk-driver related side swipes, as mine was probably quite intoxicated, or at least enough to successfully maneuver a hit-and-run.

rhdddddd im jealous :D
