Default Side Mirrors

Anyone know of any aftermarket side mirrrors out there for the 2IS? Doing some research on parts for the car annd was just curious if there is anything out there. If there are post pics and the name of the manufacturer, thanks

There are none, but there should be. We have giant elephant ears on the side of our cars. I can't believe they are that big.

How about the side mirrors from the GS450L? Would those be a direct swap?

I would think the large side mirrors are a result of the poor rear visibility (or a partial solution to it at any rate)
