Default Any Other Full Replacement Side Mirrors Besides JP?

Hello gang, I just want to know, is there any other full replacement side mirrors besides what JP has to offer? I know WIN makes one but its for RHD only, any other companies make one? I like the JP one but their mirrors are too small and will have an increase chance of getting into an accident..

I thought Win only makes side mirror covers with the LED blinkers on them? Doesn't Gamma have em on his car?

Gamma has the WIN mirrors? I thought he modified his stock to the MB side lights?

I meant before was the ABFLUG mirrors.

Nope. I am the one with the MB side LED lights. Gammalex got the Win covers. And yes, ABFlug makes replacement side mirrors, besides Ganador (which is same as JP).

D-MAN, I believe Neo has his side mirrors from TOM'S, but it may be just the covers. Here's a pic anyway.

Yeah D I think those are just covers....I think the best way to do it is to do the custom job like Jon did....his is the cleanest I've seen so far....another CL member had them too.....I think his CLname was BDragon or something like that....I cant remember right now but he did the same job with the CLK mirrors....I'm hoping to do the same ....If I find out anything I will let you know....Maybe there will be something out at SEMA ??? I'll keep you posted either way my friend!!

Peace!!

Both the Tom's (mine) and the Win (GammaLex's) are covers.

2001HiTechGS retrofitted MB lights into his mirrors as well as a couple of other of his friends (also CL members) last year. jtanoyo's mirrors are also retrofitted.

Thanks guys, I am still debating on whether to retrofit my mirrors like the MB or get a full replacement, its pretty much the same amount of $$ to go either way.. Wish that the JP/Ganador mirrors were bigger!

If you are going to spend the money anyway, I would go the retrofit route and be one of the very few here who's got em done....
