Default Side mirror question

Will the 08+ side mirror fit an 06 gs? Love the way the side mirror on the 08 look.

dont do it j/k I am sure you can make them work if you want. I am not sure if its a direct fit. I dont see why not its just the plug that may be different.

Do you not like the look of the aftermarket covers for the 06 model year. A member has a nice DIY write up that is pretty easy to follow and Nigel our vendor has them in stock.

i think it will fit, but not plug and play coz' you need to run and likely tap some wires

but the price tag will probably shock you

The factory ones just seem to flow a lot better instead of the side blinker sticking out a little bit like the aftermarket ones. I know they are really expensive, but maybe I can find some used one and just have them painted
