winker mirror from skipper website

anybody on azine purchase these "winker mirror" from the same website that sells the skipper bodykit.


is it a direct fit to a 2g tl or do modifications have to be made, and would the wiring harness connect without modifications?

Well, I happen to have a extra 2nd gen mirror. I was trying to figure out how to make the turn signal mirrors on my own, but after looking at the website.. I'm not gonna even try. IF there is enough interest, I'd be willing to ship them the one I have.

Let me know.

i think the blinker should be visible from the front. so that cars behind you can see the light blinking.

donno if someone already mentioned it, but the 99-01 mirrors are different then the 02-03 mirrors, total different shape, i have the 02-03 on my 99...

and im pretty sure the mirrors on the jdm tl are the same as ours, tthey just fold in.. if there was any difference in them, i would have to say its the glass not the mirror housing..
