Hey,

I’m trying to find a part. If you look below at the picture its the rear view mirror by the hood/lights. I don’t know what that’s called or where I can find one.

Please let me know if you have any info?

That's an OEM Japanese side mirror, required on all SUV's in Japan. It's so you can see the passenger side. Many LC owners in Japan remove the mirror for looks. There's a plate you can buy to patch up the hole. You'd need one that fits on the opposite side of the vehicle, which isn't made. Besides, why would you want to drill more holes in the body. In the LC magazines in Japan, people try to make their Cygnus' look like LX's. One can buy all kinds of LX parts (emblems, side step moldings, lights, center wheel caps, steering wheels, airbag pads, even the half of the key cover to replace the toyota logo) at exhorbitant prices. Cygnus owners there spend thousands of dollars on their rigs to make them look like LX470's rather than Cygnus'.

Yeah,

Thanks for the help. I thought it would attach to the hood but I guess not. I don't really want to drill a hole on the side of my LX. I'M trying to do the opposite! LOL

Thanks
