they're not our mirrors - look at the contour of the housing. not saying they won't fit though.

they could fit the first gen tl
and it'd still be a huge waste of money for everyone except jdm inspired who would have to get them.

Seem cool. Just can't justify spending on them. Maybe if I had nothing else to do with the car.

only really useful if your parking spots are really really tight and so on.. but honestly.. if it was THAT tight.. how would you manage to even get out of your car..

even tho it helps from people "running" by your car and opps.. breaks off your mirror.. why not just fold them in after you get out... other than that.. waste of money. its like.. the new lexus LS460 with power trunks... how much more lazy can america get.... thats just my 2cents

thats what i was thinking.. thats something you buy if you have ABSOLUTELY nothing else to buy and you can waste the dough.

anybody you showed that too would be memorized for about the first 2 minutes.. then its like.. "ok they fold out and in.. whoopee:"

I'm pretty sure that those will fit. (Google image search 2001 honda inspire) In the "homeland" (Japan) its an option on lots of veh.'s b/c their cities make NY look like a small town. I had a set on my EG hatch. Were they useful? Not really. But wired so they open when you start the car and close when its shut off is kinda cool. At least in my head.

If no one gets them I might next pay.....

there was a set that sold for $100 just a couple of days ago. not sure if theyll fit either, but im more than positive you can remove the housing and use the internal mechanics and fit them to your mirrors.

1) You will lose your heated mirror functionality
2) You have to gut the housings and swap the mirrors from you US spec mirrors
3) as others said its stated ua1 ua2 so no guarantee they fit our ua4/ua5's
