Here's the part#s for the correct glass for LHD. Ofcourse this is assuming you got yours from Japan and it's for RHD :

PS. I just got hold of the parts booklet for the 8G Galant. It's about 350 pages. If you need any JDM part and need the part #, let me know and I'll get the # for ya.
are those mirrors from a US version?

Japanese LHD
I want those mirrors. Can you get them for me?
wow frankmb your car looks great. Sorry, off topics but my computer sucks @ home (im at school) and I run 56k earthlink (accelerated) and most pics dont load up there...hehe
<span style='color:blue'>OK, I can't really see too well from your pics, but you have mirrors that fold in, and are connected to the electical system so they can be adjusted without having to stick your hand out the window and move the glass? That's hot! Where can everyone else that wants folding mirrors purchase some? I've looked on the most common websites that sell 8G aftermarket shit, but have come up empty.</span>
I just want the mirrors. Are there anymore or is that it? :?:
I want those mirrors!
ive had my jdm mirrors for probably months now, and i am already used to driving with the RHD mirrors... 8)
With those part numbers or any part numbers from OEM JDM parts, are you able to go to a Mitsubishi parts department and have them order it for you?
Its funny you asked, I called the Mitsu dealer and was told they can get them sometimes and currently, they are on back order. I added my name to the list, but you will not believe the prices I was given for the two mirrors. I gorgot where I wrote the prices down at, but it was somewhere between $40-60 for the set (power folding).Quote:

Yep, Thats exactly it. But you get used to it and its actually a lot better then the usdm one. BTW i no longer have nextel so can you pm me ur number.
for the mirrors that i bought the magnification for both are the same where they look like the usdm passenger side. Would i need to get these from frankmb or are they the same thing?
i know what your saying Rich these mirrors are weird like that, there giving me headaches when im driving, it like wearing somebody elses prescription glasses.
on top of that these mirrors dont pan out as much as on the driver side or pan in on the passenger side as much as i would like them to, im almosted tempted to take the usdm mirrors and cut them into the shape i need em with a dremel and just glue them on top of the jdm mirrors or go to the auto part store and look for some replacements that are close to the shape that i can glue one
Goosey PM sent
yep i was thinking of doing the same thing since the usdm are larger then the jdm and would fit in there nicely after being dremel or even better have a professional glass cutter do them
Thats exactly how my mirrors used to be, after i got the new lenses from frank everything is fine. Both my mirrors now magnify the same.
When you say the same you mean as USDM or that they match in maginification for both sides cause if its the latter thats how i have mine now.
Both of them are the same as a USDM passenger side mirror
ok so from what ive been reading....i still dont get what to do with the usdm mirrors. modify them or just get them from the dealer?
as of now im getting used to the mirrors i ordered but i still notice a difference when driving my car and my girl's car, i still gonna try to modify my usdm mirriros but im not sure when, hopefully soon ill keep you updated
hey frankmb, you got the part number for these in lhd again? for some reason, i can't see it...
I have folding mirrors. They don't seem to work off the switch tho.
Probably simple to fix, just something which isn't important to me.
no i just need the part # for the glass for lhd....figured, couldn't really find a glass cutting shop for this, and saw this thread made a while back while using search...
send a pm to Goosey2099. he is able to get the glass to make them LHD. I have them in my car, and they are perfect.Quote:
