Default Just installed auto-dimming Euro mirrors! I haven't found pictures about installation on our cars...

so I took some.

Picture showing where to start removing the mirror (as others have previous posted):


After undoing the long clip:


With mirror detached from circular plate:



And lastly a straight-on picture of what's behind the mirror:



Haven't driven around with the mirrors yet, but I'm quite impressed by the massively increased field of view! Picture shown is of fluorescent lighting on the ceiling.

Default I think he said I got the last he's got, and DAMN was my response too when he first contacted me!

I'm quite sure if he's still got some, he'll get in touch with you.
