Default Stratmosphere blind spot mirrors...

I have checked out Stratmosphere's website but can not discern whether they sell the blind spot mirrors to fit the 98 MY car with the smaller passenger side mirror. My mirrors are really suffering from rust or whatever that brown stuff on them is. I want to pick up a pair of these mirrors but cant seem to find them. I have been told that some people got them from dealers in Germany. Anyway my dealer quoted me 175 to replace my mirrors with just the regular stock ones and Im sure I can find stuff cheaper than that. Any info on where to get these things would be appreciated, I have already checked Ebay, Ebay.de and Ebay.co.uk.
TIA

I think the sm passenger mirror is too sm to take advantage of the blind spot mirror.

Default Yeah, I think Stratmosphere sells the entire mirror assembly or something.

I got mine (mirror part only) through a group buy. Sent directly from England (I think) for ~ $22.

Default yeah you can just replace the glass....

i had my car at the dealer and asked them about it but they wanted $175 just to replace both pieces of glass which im obviously not doing. Im sure you could get the stock glass relatively cheap and do it yourself, I heard its an easy install, but Im trying to find these blindspot mirrors.
