Replacement mirrors... (1 Viewer)

Recently my passenger mirror completely broke. The screw hole on the bottom and the two tabs were done. I was being lazy that day and just decided to buy a replacement and I wasn't in the mood to be robbed to have a Toyota name on the part...
I got this. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009EABGAU
Comes with both sides in black...

I used those on my truck. Been on for a year with no problems so far.

Do they plug into the harness?

 

[graham5david]

Mine did.

Hhmmm. Seems like an interesting choice. As I prepare to paint I've thought about replacing my pretty worn out mirrors. I'd planned to paint mine black, so these coming black helps out. How does the glass look? Smooth and flat with no image distortion?

1aauto.com has nice mirrors! I bought a pair for my dodge diesel and they were perfect. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy them for my fj80. They’re actually on the list of parts to purchase! Plus they have great customer service and a good warranty/policy. When I checked the price on them they were 150$ for the pair.

How is it once it's installed? Does the actual mirror part articulate and move in each direction fully as good as the original? The one I bought would (power mirror) adjust in really far but not out too much. I am talking about the actual mirror when adjusting using power..not the whole housing.

I haven't installed them yet but will this weekend. I believe they fold in but not sure about out...

Mirror is pretty clear

I'm going to throw a coat of wax on the outside plastic. I noticed the plastic scratches pretty easy...

Ok all installed. They do fold front and back and feel solid enough. Look good as well.

Prune them into some heavy tree branches so we can see how they REALLY hold up?

Run them

Ha! OK, that makes sense. I was wondering if you had been just living with what you wrote for the last 15 years

I just installed a set myself. They were a few bucks more and came in Depo branded boxes. I'm sure they are all made by the same 9 year old chinese kid, but they work and sure beat my old duct taped mirrors. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E4RYII/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

worry not they will get their fair share of plant life impacts and if they break, so what, they're a hundred bucks... If they last, great! If not I fix my old sloppy, rattling, cracked, can't see the car behind me mirrors...

Ive been running these mirrors for 8 years. The glass/mirror shakes in the housing as you drive down the road.

No other problems.
