These things are killer, really clean up the looks of the car and make it look a hell of a lot better. I still need to get them painted but was too eager to put them on so they are on in the mean time. Install is pretty straight forward and doesn't take very much time. Thank you Corey and Heath, I love these new mirrors.

*If they ask how you heard about them, tell them you saw my post (if you dont mind), thank you -Richard

Write-up:
They recommend painting these mirror housings with an automotive exterior paint to keep them UV stable. If you don't there is a possibility of them getting gray and chalky in the future. They are made from urethane and they do not use a release on their molds like other manufactures so painting should not be a problem.

Parts included:
Driver and Passenger mirror housings and mirror glass assemblies.



1. Remove the drivers side triangular plastic cover that the side mirror adjustment **** is located in. You can do this simply by pulling horizontally.



2. Disconnect the mirror motor wire harness.





3. Remove the three nuts holding the mirror in place. 11mm



4. Remove the mirror assembly.



5. Remove mirror by carefully pulling.



6. Get the correct Torx bit and unscrew the three torx screws attaching the mirror motor.





7. Gently pull out the motor and unclip the wiring from the back of the motor. The later motors that came along in 06 have an uncommon looking harness. It has a funky saddle type harness that has two clips on either side of the motor.





8. Remove the wiring harness from the stock housing.





9. Clip wiring back onto the mirror motor.





10. Thread the wire harness through the new mirror housing.



11. Screw the factory motor in place using the three stock torx screws.



12. Remove the stock weatherstripping foam from the stock mirror. Place this on the new A47 mirror housing and bolt it on the car using the stock nuts.



Install both sides to this point and plug in the harnesses. Now check the motors for proper operation.



13. After everything is working properly you can clip on the actual mirror glass. It will be marked on the back with a D or P designating driver or passenger. Before you snap them on note that there is a thin wall. Make sure the cut out faces downward. It should not take too much force to snap these on. DO NOT FORCE IT! These are not meant to be repeatedly taken on and off so try to get it right the first time.





14. Reinstall the plastic interior covers.

 

those are ****.

 

Holy cow! $400 bucks for mirrors??? Yikes. They look good, but for that kind of money I'll have mine painted($75 if left textured or $150 to have them filled/sanded/painted).

 

No, they are mirrors! LOL!

Thanks!

 

I am going to have them painted, I am holding off a little bit to have the entire car painted at once, once the kit is done.

 

And nice ones at that

 

Pricey, but on my short list. Those look great, and thanks for the write up.

look good, but wayyy overpriced and they dont even fold? AND you have to re-install the old motors? PASS.

 

and well worth it IMO, it was the one thing that absolutely NEEDED to be changed on the car as far as looks go.

and thanks and you are welcome

 

Very nice looking. I'm surprised at that price point that the motors were not part of the included in the kit.

Otherwise, very good look, and exactly what I wanted to make if they didn't do it first. I applaud the look, and I'm glad you are happy with them.

 

Great write up! Good pix! Glad to see you are happy!

Now the bad news...

Price:

I don't think they look different enough from stock to justify the cost, sorry... Think I'll have to pass on this one.

 

they look a lot different they are about half the size and a lot sleeker looking compared to the truck mirrors the car comes with

 

Hmmmm... maybe a side by side comparo would help... I'll have to look out for them at the next show!

 

I like them. Thanks for the excellent writeup. On this pic though, it seems that the triangular part that's attached to the door isn't totally flush??

 

its actually more flush than my stock mirrors were, Ill have to look more closely tomorrow but its not noticeable when looking at it

 

VERY nice looking!

Too bad they are so expensive though....and you have to take the weatherstripping off your old mirrors and install it on the new ones?

 

Great write-up! These are the type of mirrors that should have came with the retro looking 05+ Stangs. They're on my wish list

 

BARF, and the price . I'll keep waiting for the SSE mirrors:

 

I'd be concerned with wind noise. Look at how much that base plate sticks out past the A-Pillar! For that amount of money, I would expect a much better fit.

 

A lot more retro than the SSE mirrors IMO. And I am a fan of SSE...
