will 02-03 typeS side mirrors work on 99-01
Will it be a direct fit and will everything plug-n-play as well?
if not what features would i lose. i know there is an automatic tilting on the 02-03 which im sure i wont get and dont mind. i am just in need of a new mirror because mine dont look aesthetically pleaseing

Just chillen..
Any way to get the tilt feature? With the 02-03 mirrors? And is that the only difference between the 99-01 and the 02-03? Also, noticed a light blueish tint, does that serve as anything? Such as the auto Dimming mirror? Thanks!

Can't get the tilt feature in the 99. The tilt functionality is part of the ECU.
Blueish tint is just that, a tinted mirror. It does not auto dim.

they are pretty much the exact same except for the 02-03 are actually much better. They redesigned the angle by the window to direct wind flow away from the window (and bugs) ive wanted to get them since i saw the difference. Im sick of bugs hitting me in the head and splattering on my window because the mirror directs them at you and the window.

Perhaps sportier wasn't the correct word. I think the 99-01 lights flow with the lines of the car better, and I've never been hit by bugs with my window open so I don't really care.
