    Default Have these Sideview Mirrors?

    Anybody have these Mirrors? As they're local i could skip shipping. My passenger side Mirror looks like its leaked glue or some other gunk around the edges.

    Those are neat. How hard is it to change mirrors?

    Mine just pulled off and the new one popped in. Lucky I didn't break it I guess.

    they have that type of mirror on the e46 M's, the split is kinda cool as it widens your viewing angle...sometimes it can give you a headache though
