side mirrors

Besides tinting the side mirrors blue and besides buying the M3 mirrors, does anyone know what type of mod is out there to get those blue tinted mirrors that the 02 and 03 tl's have for a 99TL
Any info would be appreciated...

thanks

You can always buy the mirror housing for the 02/03 and put it on your car.

They run about $150 a piece.

Are you sure the mirror housing is compatible w/ the 99TL. Are there any mods needed, or is it a direct swap? Does the housing come with the actual mirror? Do you know anyone who has tried it or did it? I would not want to buy the housing and it NOT fit on my car....
Thanks for your help.....

The piece that mounts to the door appears to be the same shape. I would go over to the dealership and look at them side by side. They sure look the same. Really your only concern is that the traingle piece is the same.

BTW, the only way to buy it is to buy the entire unit, motors, mirror.....all of it. Can't just buy the housing.

Wow, the whole unit, how much do you think that will cost? It sounds like a lot of work and money..

thanks

They're $150 for each side.

Not a lot of work, I think it's three bolts on each mirror and the electrical connection.

$300 just for tinted mirrors? Why don't you just get some tint film and try that first?
