    Ron produced them at vehicrosscomcepts.com but he hasn't been around in a bit - seems he's had a couple of job changes and has been busy - I bought both the front and back from him.

    I think the mirrors on the VX are the same as for the 1996-1997 Rodeo and the LS model came with crome mirrors - maybe you could order a set from St. Charles or pull a set from a junker?

    Not the same - there was a thread by someone in the past who tried retro-fitting and ran into issues. I have also heard in the past that Isuzu spent a ton to get mirrors on the VX that "look" like the rodeo mirrors, but are actually different (mounts and "guts" are different and not compatible).

    Ive brought over several items from Jp for the Svx owners
    over the yrs, I even imported a car from there about 5
    yrs ago.
    Im checking with my connections this week on what we can
    possibly get.

    Ive picked up a new AWD emblem for my own Svx
    and other owners I thought was pretty nice for those cars
    Im thinking about seeing how it looks in the Grill of the Vx
    maybe in place of the ft grill emblem or rear hatch door
    possibly.

    You know to use the JDM steering wheel you would have to do away with the air bag...they do not have one.
