Ebay Side Mirrors - Mason - 06-21-2006
Looked at some mirrors on Ebay and I like a few of the designs. Just getting some input on them and the quality of those.
Any one?

Usually the stuff you only find on ebay is fairly low quality. With something like a mirror if you have poor fitment you can get a lot of wind noise..

Yea think. ID almost be willing to risk it and blow the 40bux. No LED... hate Led.
But as for and poor fitting, I would send them back for the poor fitting.

Personally, I wouldn't touch ebay parts, but it is cheap, so it wouldn't be the biggest loss.

I paid $10usd for my M3 mirrors, LED and power.

I got my mirrors off of ebay and I have had no issues with fitment or wind noise!

I had them too, my mirrors got destroyed by winter and they looked like crap after. Not to mention the mirror part actually cracked and the power never worked anyways. The LED was the only kool part.

Well since I ended up getting the chrome mirrors the winter do tarnish the look of the chrome a little, but that will be fixed in a matter of weeks!!! Oh and I got the manual mirrors! :)

If I were to get these would anyone in london give me a hand. Never changed mirrors before.

I agree 110%, they are very poorly made, mass produced at the cheapest method possible.
I'd would never buy them myself......

it's really not that hard. I can give you a hand or find some how to's if you need help. I changed mine in 30mins or less.
And to answer your previous question, they are still on the car but I am going to put the stockers back on eventually

I really liked my M3 mirrors I got for $13. That said, they did produce wind noise above 100kph, but they looked really nice.
Ebay Side Mirrors - nass - 06-22-2006
The wind noise everyone talks about isn't from the mirror itself, it's from the adapter. On mine there is a gap and the fitment is just garbage. The noise comes from that.
Ebay Side Mirrors - ZX3guy2000 - 06-22-2006
The ones that I purchase didn't have an adapter, they fit on just like the stock mirrors..... Oh well gues I got some good ones!
I tried to find the seller but I couldn't.... the ones that I purchase were hard to find on Ebay!
Ebay Side Mirrors - Mason - 06-23-2006
Well if anyone has any good quality ones or happens to see any POST FOR ME lol
