didn't say take a number coz they are hard to get them. I meant that alot of people would like to have them. Do you know what his shipping prices are like? anything out of the states is ridiculous. I have had a couple of quotes for various items and the shipping is more expensive out of the states than the item costs alot of the time.

Hi Rice,
Lucky u might be getting the mirrors. Do you mind posting some pictures of the mirrors once you get your hands on them? Since the mirrors are way beyond me, a good look at the pics will be my wish  before I die 
I am no owner of these mirrors - I supposed these mirrors are bitch when it comes to engine repairs, hard to see when it rains, and probably a good pedestrian killer object.
But dammit I still want em'!!
BTW, are the mirrors adjustable?

fellas,
I got these mirrors from CABE TOYOTA in Long Beach CA. They cost me 160 brand new. I'm sure they will ship them to you all at a reasonable rate, and to be honest they can get almost as much stuff as Toyhead and at a much much lower rate. Toyhead wanted 180 US for some window rubbers that I got for 75 US. Just to put it into perspective.
I've got those exact mirros mounted on my Celica and love them. They took very little getting use to, and if you look under your fender or feel real good you will notice there is a recess in the fender well where these mount. I used a step drill to get the right hole width and then mounted them. It can be done in about 1 hour and that is pulling the fenders off and getting it done right. I wish I had a close up of them to show you all, but I just dropped my car off at the body shop to get the rear spoiler fixed. I should have it back on Monday and I'll post a pic then.

The ones from the auction are missing some key parts like the base from one and the spring and washer piece from the other.
Rosey, your mirrors are nice!!! I wish I had got a set like that instead of mine. I found a bad set from Hella one time and passed on them. I wish I had gotten them now. It was like a year ago when I found them. Maybe you can still order them through a Hella dealer.

Yeah, Rosey. Some pictures of your car will be nice too. esp with the GT lip. Sexseh!
Goin back to the mirror matters, I chatted with an old uncle of mine. He sez that those yesteryear fender mirrors from Japan used to be motorised, with wirings and can be adjusted in the cockpit.
Anyone seen em' and can confirm their existance?
