They may end up looking like they are at an angle.

I'm personally not too fond of the blinkers, but blinkers aside, i'm all for some new mirrors, ours are way too bulky and produce a lot of wind noise. I'm looking for a more function mirror.

get the 2002 CL-S mirrors, they are a HUGE improvement over the 2001

W/ an 02 CL-S the side view mirrors are fully body colored whereas w/ the 01's they are black on th bottom of the side view and and body colored on the top...but seriously-Why waste your $$$ getting 02 CL-s mirrors???

no, they are different. Look at some pics. you'll see there there is a crease in the center on the 02's where the 01's are like rounded. seems like the crease is there to direct wind outwards.

there are couple of reasons why i was think of the M3 mirrors made for honda accord 01 and up, because
1. they are smaller
2. they have less blind spots, which ours is ful of it
3. nice design more cutting edge like
4. our car is a luxury sports car so it fits us in that category.
5. it has the blue shade mirrors as well.
Opak makes one for 89 bucks a pair, i'm seriously considering it.
Only thing i am worried about is, will the mirror point down when i put it on reverse, is that program in the mirror or the car? any 1 know???
here is the link where you can buy them, my friend has this mirror on his accord, looks great
*M3 mirrors

tilt-down is a stock thing only. you would have to have it built into the new mirrors which i doubt is possible

a better question would be, would the up and coming '03 TSX mirrors fit the older models.

no TSX mirrors wouldnt fit out car...

pretty much any mirror not intended for our car isnt gonna fit... because nothing has an identical window angle...

this is why even TL mirrors arent swappable with the CL, and vice versa.
