Motorized Folding Side View Mirrors

So I have a set of these for my legend that I found on Acura-Legend.com but I cant seem to find them for the TL. I heard that "mike at value audio can get them" but who is this guy and how do i get in touch with him?

Plus has anyone here bought stuff from him, if so how would you rate him?

Thanks guys

P.S. Like I said I have a set of these so I know the down side of having JDM Mirrors.

interesting mod, but IMO not worth the money and effort to put those on unless where you park your car is really tight.

stay away from Mike @ Value Car Audio. Many complaints about him being a total scam artist. he's not endorsed by this site, that's for sure.

The other issue is that they are made for a right-hand drive vehicle. I know nighthawkblack has them and had a tough time getting them to angle the correct way for a left-hand drive vehicle.

I paid 200 for the legend mirrors, installed them myself in less then half a day and they were tight as fucc especially when you arm the car and not only do the windows and sunroof close but the mirrors fold too.
I have no idea how much they are for the TL (probably more than $200) but whatever it is, it's worth it.

And to those who think they're not, you probably haven't seen them in person or you're just to old to appreciate 'em.

With these folding mirrors, do you lose the heated mirrors?

If you get the Inspire ones, yes you do. The button that controls the motors goes where the mirror heater button goes.

Mike from value-caraudio sucks balls. That guy has the worst business practices ive ever seen. He should not run a company and someone else needs to bank off these JDM parts that hes so slacking on. MIKE YOU SUCK HAIRY BALLS! I dont even have my TL-S anymore but I wouldnt buy anything from this douche.
