I love those mirrors, was the buying process easy? Did you just contact them on Facebook?

How were they to install and what did you do with the little camera in the stock rear view mirror?

Car looks great!

Thanks Fellas! I'm so in love with them.. haha

The buying process was easy took 3 weeks from order to when it arrived, and yes just comms over Facebook with UA Garage.

The infotainment screen doesn't switch to right side mirror camera mode when i signal. These mirrors have got to be 50% lighter than the OEM ones!

Lighter is always better! Especially on the front end of our cars, im currently trying to figure out a good battery relocation setup, i want mine in the hatch, in the spare tire well since i run a mini pump and patch kit instead of the heavy spare/tools. Cant even use the spare anymore since i am running conical lugnuts and advans.

Are the mirrors motorized? I am super interested in a set. Car is looking too good bro.

I too am looking into a battery relocator setup, might have to wait until you get yours done first so I can copy! Lol can i see what your mini pump/patch kit looks like?

btw, mirrors are manual. And thanks for the kind words broski!

Cheers

This thread doesn't fail to deliver. Great to see you with all these aftermarket parts, which seem to be lacking for the GK.

Are those mirrors replicas or actual Spoon parts? I can't find anything about them and I don't use Facebook.

I don't think they exist specifically for the GK5 platform.

From what I was told, Go Tuning utilized S2000 mirrors for their SEMA car.

Thanks for posting!

Were you driving on the rumble strips the whole time, or will a better camera mount be in your future?

you are correct on the rumble strips, I used the whole width of the track as much as possible. Sorry for the over exposure gotta do better with the video settings. Thought the GoPro5 was better than that.
