The '02s have the blue anti-glare coating on the mirror already. I think it works great--glare is not nearly the problem it is with my past cars. For those without the mirror treatment, I don't know of any aftermarket product that would do the same thing and be durable enough to survive the elements. I don't know if the size is the same, but if they were you could always purchase just the mirror glass and install it on your 2000. Not sure if it would be cost-effective though.

Nate, are you searching through the forum with the keyword "blue" to see what else you can change on the TL???

Props on the LEDs......you've got a bigger set than most.

:p

Ya, I think they made the mirror sit a little lower to try to reduce freeway speed wind noise, but I'm not sure if they changed the glass... though if its tinted I'd bet they did. Bastards.

Sorry, the glass shape is different. I am speaking to a company that vaporizes color particles onto glass and lenses to coat them. I'll let you know what I find out.
