I just wanted to know if the side mirrors on our cars the same as the Accords. Cause I was thinking about replacing them with the M3 mirrors. Here is the link to the m3 mirrors.

Those Mercedes-Benz S500 lights are PHAT...anywhere know where they're available? [Do they even make the S500-style mirrors in popular applications?]
