Default Yet another question about mirrors??

I am planning on getting new mirrors. I have decided to either get JDM folding mirrors or spoon style mirrors. If I get the spoon style mirrors should I get CF ones or the non CF ones?



They will be going on this car:

Do you know where I could find a wiring diagram? Are they hard to wire up? Should I just get non power folding mirrors?

Yes, I have power mirrors. The non power folding ones I found hook to the exsting harness so I can still have power mirrors. They are only $125.

I'm sure you can google it, but if not, I can draw one up. It's pretty straight forward once you get all the items.

You need the switch, the relay, and some wire. Having power mirrors just saves you a little work.

When you say power folding are u refering to the jdm mirrors that fold in with the touch of a button or power controled ones that you manually fold in..? BTW i like the carbon fiber ones.

those are what I have, the non-power folding mirrors. Who needs to spend $200 extra on jdm bling h:

I have a friend who had a hatch with the same mirrors. They're pretty dead-on if they're non-OEM parts.

when I said "JDM switches" in my mind I was including the relays and the extra wire associated with the switch and relay....but thanks for clarifying I should have been more specific
