Lukas Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 These are JDM mirrors... L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatInDaHat Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 I know they are stock. JDM might be too tight of a word. It seems they were on them everywhere except the states. If you look at all of the literature for the leone (mostly in russian) they all show those mirrors. I just need to find a pair. -Dusty- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukas Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 No, they are JDM only. Of course the russion cars have this mirrors too, because the russions are importing a lot of used cars from japanese into their country. So a lot of cars driven in Russia are from Japan. The russian are driving on the right side, but that doesnt bother them. Lukas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatInDaHat Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Regardless, i still want to find a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenaissanceMan Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I can get them from a business down the street from where I work. They use those mirrors on a lot of vintage european spors cars as well. I think they run around $30 a piece. "Jim's Import auto Parts" (which also shares the same building as British Sports cars) (805) 543-6900 Give him a call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukas in nz and in aussie we got those mirrors from new with our 1400s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroy Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 in nz and in aussie we got those mirrors from new with our 1400s Australia never had the wing mounted mirrors, they do not meet Australian Design Rules (ADRs). We had the door mounted mirrors that were the same style as in the US and some seventies Datsuns such as the 120Y. To me, unless they are electric, Japanese style wing mirrors would be a real pain to adjust. You cannot do it from the drivers seat :-\.
