DIY - Install M3 Mirrors

Very simple job... don't even need to remove door panels
You will of course need a set of M3 mirrors

Took me about an hour, including taking pics

Hope this helps someone out

I should be good on the switch as I think my US model already has it, and coded for it. Where did you pick them up? Looks like a rather expensive upgrade but I can't complain about that with you at you upgrade # 300

. Just curious where you got them, and where you picked up the carbon covers etc...

Thanks brother!

Mirrors were from brimtech and covers are 3D vinyl wrap mate
Total cost will be around $2K AUD once I buy proper CF mirror caps

Great DIY, car and the mirrors look awesome! They are just so damn expensive. So much other stuff I could do for that money....including a vacation! Haaa. Eventually I will do this tho.

So true....bitten by the mod bug, and no cure. I feel your pain. I have AA catless ceramic headers to install along with M3 sways, bushings and control arms. The rabbit hole gets deeper and deeper...😱

I will definitely look at your thread👍
