I think there taking them off the 2g eclipse and the 98-99 Accords, those are the only mirros that have the same shape and or bolt pattern as us..

ok i'll step in now and prevent you guys from wasting your money...the mirrors you want are from 94-97 accord and NO they are not a direct bolt NOR are they a direct fit...not even the mounting holes are they same...real close but not the same. i'll take some pics later and show you what i mean. your best bet would really be Ebay....mine are FULLY power and have the LED markers...i paid 200 for the pair.

tru...but you lose your power function, and it's a pain to adjust these tiny ass mirrors on the freeway by hand.

Thanks for the pics Cali.. from looking at it, it seems the Accord M3's are taller and thinner than our stock side mirrors.. The install looks pretty good, but how is it mounted seeing as how there is that gap there that you arrowed out 2 me.? ohh yeah lovin the new avatar, and those fogs and HELLA tight..

if you got a metalic silver 8g, the you would have to paint them - even if it came painted silver for another vehicle, then it would never match the silver metallic shade of our galants!!!

NONE come painted... you have to get them painted professionally.
