looks pretty good.
i'm guessing it's the same format as the JDM mirror covers...just ALOT cheaper!
wiring should be pretty easy to figure out

I am intrested in this.
The only damper is: I checked with a body shop and got a quote of $150 to paint both the covers storm silver (NH642M) to matck my body color.
Does any one know where to get these painted at a better cost?
