So many of y'all know I scavenge local junkyards on a weekly basis. Once in a while I find decent stuff like GTZ claddings and other things. This time; however, I found something for a 7G....

I shit you not....JDM Folding mirrors (EDM LHD version)

Read the labels "MMC", "Murakami plant", (some Japanese lettering),

And the neat part? Designed for Left Hand Drive vehicles.

Pulled it out from a 96 7G at my local pick-n-pull. Everything about the car is standard usdm stuff except for the mirrors. And the best part?


$22 / pair

That is all....

nice man. Don't want to see any jdm parts hit the crusher, though I'm sure many do.

These are not power. Any stock folding mirror on a USDM car were non-powered.

now that i look they arent power. i have manual mirrors anyway, i think these would be a good touch to my car still

Found a set myself earlier this year...along with a MINT dashboard. I bet the dashboard of the 7g you pulled that from didn't have seperation, and discoloring like the USDM built 7gs did.

7g's in the us with those folding mirrors are Japanese built..VIN number on them will all start with a "J". Better quality materials used.

I love mine.

Even being non powered/heated, they still look tons better then USDM mirrors. The folding is just a +.
