!!!!!!!!!!!!! Update !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right we are going to go with Newgmparts.com due to cheeper prices and the fact they ship direct to the UK

i have been in touch with them and managed to get a 3% discount on the mirrors and wholesale discount on the shipping. (this is all bassed on 10 of each mirrors). they have told me if we order 20 of each we can get a further 3% discount on the mirrors.

i wish to place an order this saturday and if all being well take the mirrors to the Next meet in stevenage.

so numbers please

I must say that's a much better price. I seem to remember paying BO55 £25 for mine. £52 + VAT is a little steep for a mirror. Would it be worth contacting them for a bulk discount rate, or getting the other place to price match?

Count me in for the VXR8 mirror

good website nice find. cant say i found this one myself..

tempy i did speak to BO55 and the orginal prices i had which where higher than the ones quote where form the same place as boss got them from orginally. think they have gone up in price now days.

i iwll re-price with the new link and go from there as they actually do reasonable shipping rates to the UK as well.

i belive you are correct about your passanger mirror. best way to check is look for the objects may appear closer message on the mirror.

I bought one before but dropped it on the tiled kitchen floor whilst opening the box!

Doh.... added to the list

[darren_r1]

there is no writing / warning on the passenger mirror but its definatly wide angle :-)

[Phantom Mark]

VXR8 drivers wide angle for me too please.......

[paulg390]

Wide angle VXR8 Drivers side for me too please...

[duckson]

Sorry to be slow but i have a VXR8 with the magnified drivers mirror...i take it the wide angle mirror will make it more like a "normal" mirror? And is it easy to change the mirrors over? (any links to help on this much appreciated).

I'll await the replies before i say i want one.
