A stupid exterior mod question .

Alot of new cars coming out now have indicators in side mirrors but most of them are non compatible with 3rd Gen Magna's frame less windows. even no after market side mirrors fit to 3rd gens due to same reasons.

but recently I have seen 2 cars with 3rd gen style side mirrors with indicators, new Civic and Jazz.

so i was wondering if any one has thought going down this track????

Hey mate! i am going down this track and just waiting on my mirrors to arrive!!
they are m3 style mirrors but arent meant for magnas!! if your going down this track find someone who can make you a custom mount!!! plenty of guys can do it! you could probally do it yourself!! these are the pics http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/3827/481b9zj.jpg


these are the chrome ones im getting, they also come in black. hope this helps!! apart from these mirrors i couldnt find any other that looked decent!! :thumbsup:

just had a look at the honda website. I think you could definately make them fit using the magna base and the honda mirror.

As for those m3 mirrors. They wont suit no matter how much you mod them to fit. Theres a reason they made them for the m3. they belong on it.

is there a way to use the magna surround, cut the front, insert the amber/clear reflector and wire them up.... wiring shouldnt be a problem... just the cutting....

now whos wants to be the first to try....lol

Wasn't the idea of the mirrors on the door to create a wind tunnel between the mirror and the glass so that it aids in pushing the glass against the frame, and thus less wind leakage? :S

too set up m3 style mirros is too much effort . where is to install honda mirros dosent seem that big deal at least at this moment.

see the att ached pics

why not try the Grandis mirrors ... its mitsu so it may fit right in? ... though it may be quite costly!!

what ever u do dont goto speed dreams .... speed dreams is bad ... very bad lol ... everyone i know who has delt with them not happy at all ... coincidently one of their shops got burnt down ... wonder how long till the west terrace shop is burnt down LOL

Aftermarket has done a few mirror "covers" with lights for some popular imports,
but haven't seen any that would fit Magna's mirrors.

Could be an idea to get a pair of those covers to chop onto a Magna mirror.

Do a search on the Hella website - there are ADR Compliant LED markers designed to fit into side mirrors (they would probably fit OK into ours).

Keeps the original mirrors (so your power mirrors work) and you don't need custom mounts.

Also keeps it LEGAL (unlike these aftermarket ones - they are not ADR approved).
