Just curious what people think. Direct bolt on with LED turn signals. Cost is around $150.

Should I pick 'em up? I think they'd look pretty neat. :biggrin:

Nope, no installed pictures unfortunately.

Eyeballing them for size they appear to be about the same size that Tamago has on his xA: http://aggressivefitment.com/blogviewpost_105a72af-92db-4dee-a85d-6101158fbacd.aspx

Yeah, I don't know about the LEDs either, since I'm not a fan of redundancy what with the side markers.

These apparently have the bases that come with them that are a direct replacement after you take off the stockers, which is good, because I'm lazy I wouldn't want to do any fabrication to make them work.

Well darnit, I guess I won't be able to pass off my car as an F1 with these!

Anywho, they would be painted black when I get them. I hate the look of carbon fiber, and I'd be better off losing a few pounds by eating healthier for weight reduction than getting carbon fiber mirrors. :laugh:

Edit: well not direct replacement. lol language barrier. "direct replacement with fabrication"

buying fake carbon fiber is better than buying real? why not buy plain old black plastic? APR has plain ol black plastic ones for cheap

I presume they're manually and not electrically adjustable?

No, not at all. The whole point of getting these over any other were they were advertised as being direct replacements with a base that fits the Yaris. (And I have some room in a shipment from Japan to add more items)

Yeah.

On the first gen Yaris/Vitz they'd look good. I'm not too sure about our gen of Yaris/Vitz ones....?

Good find, but not sure about the look, can someone mock up a photoshop?

You'd definitely be the first to have it on your Yaris.
It's so small and kind of throws the look of the car out of proportion imho.

I don't think that will look good on a yaris

Tamago
09-14-2009, 07:14 AM
a round mirror would better suit the yaris IMO

that chop is skewed, the mirrors are way too large, and stick out way too far

Dont think it'll look good imo... even though if I would go for those. I would get one without the blinkers. that's too much... so much for weight reduction
