if anyone's interested in e30 mirrors on an e36....

[GardenBeast]

here's what they look like. i finished it today.



old and busted.


new hotness


pardon the mess. changing out bumper.

[GardenBeast]

opinions?

[Maverix]

Wow! Nicely done! How'd you do it? I was planning to do that. But I think the e34 mirrors have a much bigger base to them.

[GardenBeast]

made a metal plate that fit our triangle. welded two bolts (all three wont fit due to bolts on the e30 mirror) to bolt to our door. drilled holes for e30 mirror.
filled the remaining area with bondo, as the e30 mirrors are smaller.

as far as i can tell, the wires are the same, but i'm doing more research before finalizing... not that i blow the motor, with reveresed stuff. you know? haha.

I have to ask though, where'd you get the shifties?

[GardenBeast]

haha. turd. i have one on the rear window, and my laptop.

my buddy drew that.

And people were complaining that I was gonna do a hack job lol. Obviously it turned out great!

[GardenBeast]

i got the shiftys from a friend. he had them made for me.

arent they rad?

[tiFreak]

[GardenBeast]

nah. the shifty's are from a dude i met off bf.c who came across country, to live with me, for 2 weeks (first time we met) before moving to the UK. etc. good guy.

the roundels were from a guy 3hrs north of me.
