October 30, 200718 yr Author Similar colour? Where can i find some mirrors like that? That thing is tits.
October 31, 200718 yr Umm... In new zealand maybe if you are lucky? I can't comment on what was available in the states.
October 31, 200718 yr Author I know they are stock. JDM might be too tight of a word. It seems they were on them everywhere except the states. If you look at all of the literature for the leone (mostly in russian) they all show those mirrors. I just need to find a pair. -Dusty-
October 31, 200718 yr No, they are JDM only. Of course the russion cars have this mirrors too, because the russions are importing a lot of used cars from japanese into their country. So a lot of cars driven in Russia are from Japan. The russian are driving on the right side, but that doesnt bother them. Lukas
November 1, 200718 yr I can get them from a business down the street from where I work. They use those mirrors on a lot of vintage european spors cars as well. I think they run around $30 a piece. "Jim's Import auto Parts" (which also shares the same building as British Sports cars) (805) 543-6900 Give him a call

November 1, 200718 yr in nz and in aussie we got those mirrors from new with our 1400s Australia never had the wing mounted mirrors, they do not meet Australian Design Rules (ADRs). We had the door mounted mirrors that were the same style as in the US and some seventies Datsuns such as the 120Y. To me, unless they are electric, Japanese style wing mirrors would be a real pain to adjust. You cannot do it from the drivers seat :-\.

There are times i will sacrifice functionality for looks. -Dusty-

November 3, 200718 yr Don't need adjustment cause you can't see anythin' with them anyway! i havnt found mine to bad on my 1400 sedan.
November 3, 200718 yr Mine are convex shaped, that and the small diametre makes them pretty useless for anything past the a pillar. But this is getting OT
November 4, 200718 yr this car is supercool. i might get tempted to thrash on it though -it looking all bad rump roast and all.
