Default Installed my Euro split mirrors today...

What a PITA to get those mirrors out! Of course having the bro handy to help was key - definately best to have two people for this task. Did the drivers side first and it went relatively easy once I figured out how to do it. Then did the passenger side... which took *alot* longer... ended up marring the inside of mirror housing a wee bit as well. Not too badly, but I *know* it's there.

Now have to get used to the "fish-eye-lense" effect of the mirrors, hopefully I'll adjust to it over time and help to diminish those blind spots. I'd certainly hate to have to put the US mirrors back in!

Default Keep me posted - I havn't orderd mine yet -

But now that you are a pro installer - maybe we can do together - However if YOU mared the mirror, just think what a mess I would make ..

Default Will do...

Didn't mar the mirror, but the inside of the mirror "housing" a wee bit. Actually, it was the bro as he tried to help pry it out. Oh well, it's really no biggie, I just like things perfect!

I did the same thing to my housing-used masking tape on the mirror edges on the second try
