Default ** Ebay spoon style mirrors???**

Anybody have any experiences with them? Any recommendations? I was looking to get some for my EK?

I emailed and found out their either made by sht or ks. Which is better?...who sells ones that look just like the real spoons and are of the same quality.

I bought some knockoff spoon mirrors and it was the biggest waste of money ever. I only bought them because my drivers side stock mirror got knocked off and I could never get it fixed right (it would always rattle and come loose after a couple days when I epxoied it back). I would not recommend them as they reduce visibility most of all. They do fit very well, but are small as **** and make it hard to see. Plus both are convex (which I need glass for BTW if anyone can help me out) and I managed to put my hand through the glass on the first day I had them.

The finish is fine, and I bought them from a guy on here named Sam Nou. Can't remember his HT name or any of that, but I still got the box laying right here so I just saw the name.

i had the ebay spoons on my 98 ek. they looked good but you couldnt really use them because they were so small. dont get them if you plan on looking at them. you should get the JDM power folding ones

Agreed. Does anybody know where to get the replacement glass though (not to thread hijack, but I think I just did)??

Damn thanks a bunch but that's more than I payed for both of the mirrors!! I was looking for something more along the lines of 10-15 bucks. I had a glass shop make me a replacement for the time being, but it is not convex, not blue tinted like the other one I have. Anybody else??
