    JDM Fender mirror

    Hi, I'm thinking of getting a fender mirror and I wonder if it's any practical for US vehicrosses. Since the driver would sit on the left side and not on the right side - what exactly would the driver be able to see in that mirror? Is it adjustable or once installed on US VX only the passenger would be able to see the blind spots?

    Yes, please, that would be great.

    What do people think of this mirror? Does it make a VX look better or it looks ugly? I can't make up my mind.

    There are no practical applications for the JDM mirror for a LHD vehicle. The mirror is required on the Japanese market so the driver can see the curb while parallel parking (it points down!).

    I used to love the stock fender mirrors on my Bugeye Sprite - once you get used to them you'll wonder how you ever got by without - of course with stock fender mirrors there aren't any on the doors.

    They are not specific to the vx, but have a look at this:

    http://www.pajeroaccessories.co.uk/a...ies_front.html

    Scroll down and you will see drivers side mirrors (US passenger side) in both black and black and chrome for about $10. They are not Pajero specific and will fit to any flatish surface. I have a pair myself.

    I'm not sure if they ship abroad, but if not I'll happily buy and ship to you if you can pay me by paypal.

    This is pretty neat - I always wondered what that little mirror was for... Does anyone have a pair of the chrome side mirror covers for sale? It seems like they are pretty hard to come by. I would love to get a set of these.
