LOL, its all good, I mean, tight ass mods are tight ass mods!

I saw M3 mirrors at the performance shop - because they fit the generic ricer cars (LOL, j/k probably fits an Integra or Civic). I kept telling Gilbert that they'd fit a TL and he kept telling me they wouldn't! Told him to go check out acura-tl.com Its all you VDO! So what kind of M3 mirrors are they?

Many performance shops carry these mirrors. Call around. I got them from a groupbuy a while back for $140 shipped. They are made by RacerDesign for the 98+ Accords, and are powered. Yes, they do reduce that annoying wind noise and yes you will have to paint them unless your car is white. They were fairly simple to install, however, it involves removing the door panels because of the wiring harness. They have a bluish tint to them that perfectly matches the auto-dimming rearview mirror at night.

1999TL, why you jockin' me man.(j/k ) Actually, I was at Hocus Pocus just a couple weeks ago and they have the exact same pair as mine (98+ Accord) inside the display. Just so you know.

The mirrors don't fit like OEM, but very close, and unnoticeable to the untrained eye. See for yourself:




You also have to get use to this view:

I dunno If I'd be able to deal without the HUGE side rearview's I get with stock. Man, you don't miss em until you drive another car. We get such good rear visibility with ours.

I guess with my convex mirror's it'd be allright.
