Can anyone help me out with finding a broken mirror housing? Nothing too broken. Doesn't matter if it is folding model or not (I don't think?) The glass is not needed. I'll pay shipping.
I am wanting to find us a set of the forward facing turn signals that will fit into the housing as nicely as possible. I am not a fan of the covers with the signals incorporated into them.
My plans are to make a form to test the curves, in various positions, against some other OEM mirrors that do offer the fwd facing signals. After locating one that comes close to matching, I then use one of the donated mirrors to test fit one of those turn signals into our housing. I see OEM clone turn signals on EBay for $20-30 pair.
Yes, I will gladly share my findings, so others can benefit.
Any help with finding these housings is approciated.

If you need any help I made these, like you I wanted it to be intergrated into the housing not covers, It's going to be a difficult task. Trust me I've been trying. This is the closest I've gotten. It's not as big as I wanted but it works. There isn't really too much room behind the covers
Let me know if I can help, oh and sorry I don't have to spare mirror. Here's a link to my
album in photobucket for more pics

Nice work there. I'll keep you in mind. Yep, I'm hoping for something that looks like what DCX should offer. Thx,
