Chaps,
I never did like the (oversized!!) wing mirrors on my corsa C 1.4 sri - but some c#@t has kicked both of them off last night meaning I now have the chance to do a nice replacement - anybody got any idea's for some nice replacement mirrors which suit the car's looks?? - Car is currently in standard trim with Star Silver paintwork.....
Standard Vauxhall replacement mirrors are £74 ea here.....
They are electric BTW,,
Thanks,
Lee

Are the M3 mirrors heated as well? I think they look really cool. How do they compare in terms of actual function with the standard items.

Thanks for the input guys - I've got them screwed and taped-up at present until I decide on what replacements to go for........really like those M3 mirrors Diddon.......I've seen some M5(?) mirrors in magazine - do these fold back automatically as they do on the BMW??......I also like M3 with the indicator light - is this a bitch to wire??
Out of interest - how the hell do the standard mirrors come off - had a quick look while I was fixing these ones - can't see any screws or fastenings from the outside or inside behind the door - do all the plastic bits just come off with some good old fashioned force?? - Do I need to watch for snapping clips or anything??
Cheers guys..

You need to pull plastic trim by mirrors off to reveal 3 screws
