I Installed mine a few days ago and they work great!
i shipped it out after i got the stuff ,it might takes time though due to custom, usually around
Actually got them in a few days ago. Thanks!!! :smile:
Anyone have an issue loosening the screws to removed the mirror besides me? I just PB plasted them and walked away and hope the blaster dosen't cause an issue with the plastic housing. I didn't try adjusting the mirrors around tho to get a better straight on angle my battery is not in but seemed like i was getting on square.
I wondered if I would be the only one with this problem.
Couldn't get either phillips head screws loose, even with penetrating spray, heat, etc. Finally got the passenger side screw to move and removed it about 1/4 turn at a time. Driver's side never would break loose.
The good news is, that after applying heat (wife's hair dryer) to the driver's side assembly (warmed up the whole border portion of the mirror), I could "gently" remove the mirror after pealing the frame from around the mirror edge. The mastic holding the original mirror in was soft and removal was easy once the border was pealed back. Best to wear gloves in this operation, just in case something breaks.
Putting the new mirror in was sort of reverse of removal (as the repair manual says). I cut some small pieces of the supplied double sided foam tape and placed them on the pads on the mount frame. Then, I warmed the whole thing up again so the mirror border was pliable and soft and gently pressed the new lense into it's new home. I used one of the wife's wooden fingernail cuticle push-back thingies as a "coaxer" aroung the plastic frame to coax everything into place. No worries about the new glass falling out. Nice & snug.
This is without doubt one of the best low $$ upgrades you can do. I've always been paranoid about anybody that may be hanging back in the very large blind spot these cars have. No more.
Great upgrade. Thanks to all who contributed to this thread.

I contacted the person selling these convex mirrors and he does have sets still available.
However, the cost has increased in regards to shipping since he does not reside in the US anymore. If you're from the Bay Area CA, I was thinking of ordering a set or two and perhaps we can split the shipping costs of $35. He quoted me $35 (mirrors) + $35 shipping from Thailand so about $70 now if you want a set.

I'm looking for a set too. I'd be happy to split up the shipping costs and then flat rate ship them USPS Priority for $6 to any one else. PM me.
I have talked with the seller; lets get this up to 5 sets:
1. Swiftvision

I don't mind going ahead and ordering more from Jaima. There seems to be the interest and I haven't put the order in yet. Add your name to the list below. The more buyers, the lower the final cost.
