It looks nice. Now, how about some nice and detailed DIY?

I'd like to see some with the signals illuminated. :-) Get your camera trigger finger ready.

Otherwise, they look fantastic. Nice job.

Joeb427, the mirrors look great and I love the look on Passnu2's (Mike's car). It gives the 2gen a Mercedes C Class look. I also noticed your nice wheels.

P.S. Check your PM, I responded about the TSIB.

Great job! I just notice the right mirror on someone's car two days ago and wonder if there is some kind of retrofit kit available.

Passnu2 has a great step by step install but I search and can't find it.





MoFlava
4 LEDs in amber.
Passnu2 has a you tube video with them working.

Passnu2 and me bought them on Ebay for $181 delivered.
$50 more for painted.
Passnu2's matched.My 3 stage paint didn't.So I had them repainted.
They're still available there.
Carson has them also for $269+ shipping..

Thanks. Carson didn't indicate if it's painted or not at that price, I'm assuming it isn't. Also I am simply not good with DIY in cars so I would need someone here to do it for me.

we should have a dedicated thread for this?? maybe a sticky FAQ or something with the DIY and the info of other members? Looks like the interest is there and now with Carson selling them more and more are going to inquire...Maybe Javier can take some better photos and replace mine?? sine he is the photo king

Javier I cant wait to see pics of your car
