    yup. RHD countries have the left mirror convex and the right mirror flat... the opposite of how we have them. any country that was a colony of ENGALND (except for the US) will probably drive on the wrong side of the road and have backwards mirrors. check countries like germany and the philippines for LHD mirrors. some members here have even gotten the glass custom made for the RHD to LHD conversion. i know taiwan is LHD wheras hong kong is RHD.

    i know the glass is different. can't say much about the housings. i know a few people here on tgc have converted to LHD glass either by getting them made or ordering the rare jdm lhd glass.

    off the top of my head 2 countries that come to mind that are lhd are the philippines and taiwan. but it might be easier to just buy the mirrors from wherever and just get the glass converted.

    the glass on the jdm mirrors are smaller so you'd need to cut the glass

    i'd open up the phone book and look for automotive glass places and visit them. i know the guys in new york did that. donovan got a piece cut for me but his dumbass sent the glass in a regular envelope so by the time i got it i got a envelope filled with broken glass. his ass ran off to england before he gave my money back. so Fuck him. i'll probably find a place near me, or hit up one of the NY guys and figure something out.

    contact jaydee or goosey! i think it was like around $50 for the corrected mirror replacements. Not sure if they still have access to them.

    your not limited to those countries... those were just the one's of the top of our heads.

    here go country by country and find out which ones offered the 8G and if they are LHD or RHD:

    I can get the exact mirrors for $70 a pair +SH. Let me know. You can ask JayDee on the quality as he has them and they fit perfect.

    $70 is just for the glass, not the mirrors themselves
