Default Different Side Mirror Dimensions

I recently cracked my driver side mirror while swapping out my LED bulbs and was looking for a reasonable fix. I stumbled upon fit-over mirror panels and found multiple websites displaying the panel diagonal dimensions as 7.25" for the 2010 IS250.

Unfortunately, after waiting a week before receiving the panel, I've found the glass is too small. The manufacturer of these panels is Burco. Their website lists multiple dimensions for different models based on different years.

2010 - 7 4/16"
2009 - 7 7/16"
2006 - 2008 - 7 5/16"

Do the dimensions of the side mirrors actually vary from year to year? After measuring my own 2010, the diagonal dimension looks like about 7 8/16". Some companies are giving the disclaimer that different models of the same year have different side mirror sizes. I'm highly skeptical, but would prefer someone with experience to confirm.

As far as I know, there are 6 types of IS sedan mirror sold in North America:

06-08 ISx50 without memory/auto-dimming
06-08 ISx50 with memory/auto-dimming
09-13 ISx50 without memory/auto-dimming
09 ISx50 with memory/auto-dimming
10-13 ISx50 with memory/auto-dimming
08-14 IS F with memory/auto-dimming

At least based on the part numbers. I don't know any of the dimensions though.

Thanks for the list. I figure mine may be the auto-dimming/memory one due to the fact I have one supposed dimension out of the two which doesn't fit.

Does anyone else have some insight regarding the dimensions?
