Just a FYI to anyone out there doing this mod, be careful when bolting up the mirrors. If you turn them too tight the head of the bold snaps off. I only have the two bolts that line up in mine (Both sides), the third one snapped on me. Totally my own fault but just thought i'd throw it out there...

How well do these 5gen usdm mirrors go on a RHD celica? Cause the angling of the mirrors are made for LHD.

this happens as the threads are different, when i first tried to put mine on this happened to me, my own fault as i tried to force them, then i went to the local hardware store and bought some M5x1" bolts and they went on perfect, good point to make i just thought i would add my solution to the tap and die problem.

also if you wire them up and match the color wires they work but when you mave them they go in the wrong direction, should have read this before doing it i guess lol. thanks guys this helped me loads!
