Default Turn signal mirrors

Anyone tried these out?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-ON...spagenameZWDVW

They appear to be designed for Gen 4 and 4.5 ES's. I thought they looked very "suspect" especially being attached with 3M tape but maybe someone has had a positive experience with them.

Hi mick foley,

Sorry I haven't tried them either but then again as you have mentioned they are only for later Model Es's and I have a 97 etc so they won't fit my car. I have seen a similar set fitted on another car before and they look a bit cheap and nasty in my opinion. Because they slot over the existing mirrors, they make the mirrors look fatter and quite ugly.

If only there was a company that would make a complete replacement mirror with a turn signal built in that would fit out ES's - (sigh) I guess I'll have to keep dreaming and wishing! It's a bit like wishing for a company to make a projector style headlight for the 97-99 Es's. There are heaps of headlights on ebay, but NONE for a 97-99 etc.

Thanks for the observation. Nice to know I'm not by myself with the aftermarket support woes but some company needs to step in and take our extra money off of our hands.

As for the projector headlights, why not just do a retrofit? Since your car does not have projector style headlights on ebay that would mean that there are few of your Gen with projectors at all. Your car would definitely be a rarity on the road. Just take your time as you go and everything will go fine.
