Ok, I know most of you have seen the Mirrors on Ebay, like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...0709522418&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Well, on my Silverado, the Passenger mirror was cracked when I got it, and after seein the price for the replacement glass, I decided to try these out, especially since mine are manual, and these are power. Plus they have the LEDs.. So, I got em in the mail, they came rather quickly.. although, I was unable to find a control switch locally that I could use, that I trusted. So I have now ordered a switch from Ebay too, that will have harness and schematic. Now, since I got em, I went ahead and mounted them, and wired them into the turn signals and driving lights. I also finished wiring in the switch for the blue led's under the dash... Here is a video of the way they look and work at night.. Also shows the leds inside, because my buddy was interested in seeing how that looked.. Now, of course they are smaller than the original. But I can still see well, but I am also adding these blind spot mirrors, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

though in that listing, the picture shows them mounted on top, it would look better, and work better mounted under the mirror, which is what I will be doing. I will get some pics of it and add them as soon as I get them. So far I like it, They dont vibrate as much as the original mirrors did, so that in and of itself is an improvement. They look sweet. http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Eug4v8eTX6rEkWLOoxDwQ1BrtT53W2_a_fA5HSL9xbw?feat=d irectlink

Those lights here would get you pulled over hourly at night more then likely, they just scream guy trying to impress people and more then likely either has drugs in the car or something. Its like a lowered honda civic type stigma. They also look really small on a full size truck, I don't know why you would want a smaller mirror unless that thing was a 1/4 mile killer. But to each their own. I blew up the pics a little to see them better and figured I might as well post em up, they're grainey since I just used mspaint.

Sorry I was having a sheight day. I'm not saying HE is any of those things. Its more then likely a Toronto thing and fully not the case in the least. I also didn't mean to come off as harsh, I just didn't word things as well as I could have.

They do look good and all, they just remind me of the sport mirrors everyone puts on their 82-92 s10/ sonomas which always looked small to me even on those trucks.

But like I said to each his own I hope I didn't offend you Tone, was not what I was going after in the least.
