Replacement Mirrors

Any replacement mirrors out there for the TSX? Both my mirrors need replacing and wondering what my options are. Dealer price is pretty high at about $300 each.

Are the any other Honda/Acura mirrors that would fit? (Cheap/Temporary fix.. need mirrors to drive the car!)

What happened that you need to replace both your mirrors? There aren't any cross use mirrors if that is what you mean. You could maybe find a set of generic ones, but those mean permanent holes to be drilled and not sure you want to do that.

FYI, found the heated mirrors for $263 each.

Did you try to squeeze the car through a narrow alley or something?

That is a phrase I rarely use with JTso... "You know...." b/c he normally does.

Seriously, what is the story SilverSting??

Pickup a '04 TSX at an auction. (28000 kms, not accidented, full warranty, black on tan)... it was a theft recovery and the mirrors have been ripped off... doors are not damaged.

Paid 26K CND. Good deal, I think. Will post pics when I get the car.
I was looking for other opinions than the 265USD/380CND mirrors at the dealers. Any ideas?

me too.

Are any keys missing? You should have 2 regular keys and 1 valet. (+ 2 key fobs).

I'd be willing to bet it was a case of valet keys not being hidden well enough or a dealership theft, since there doesn't seem to be any damage.

Keys are there as the car was being driven at the auction. I haven't gotten the car yet, need to be cleared first. Should have it by weeks end.

No idea how it was stolen... but nothing is broken into!
