Sorry I should have asked the question better.
I know the mirrors will fit , I am just wondering if the drivers and passenger side were different . My 1988 Toyota pickup 22re 311,000 and still as tight as the day I bought its passenger side mirror says " in the mirror are closer than they appear " So will the JDM ones be different as they are for a RHD car ? . The Ls I own is driven by my wife, she says it has some big blind spots, when entering and exiting the freeway . I have installed a small bubble mirror on the passenger side it just looks a little grandpaish .

actual japanese mirrors are reversed so the "objects may be closer than they appear" is on the LEFT side (our driver's side).

Alas that is what I was worrying about . The mirror would be different then ? Maybe it is written in Japanese ? I would like to avoid the Oem in this case as they are so expensive but I may be forced to .
