hey i think itd be cool to have the hilux surf spot mirror on my 1st gen 4runner. ive never seen one with one, has anyone else seen this?

Jason B

Yes, I sell them. I'm assuming you are talking about the fender mirror? They are pricy though and have to be imported from japan.

Chapman88SR5

yeah that mirror, i think their pretty cool and i havent seen a first gen with one.

how much are the ones u sell?

Jason B

It's about $150. It's made in Japan, and takes 6-8 weeks to get here special order. There is one specifically made for 90-95's as well.

wow that is pricey

It might look cool but it would just reflect headlights into your face at night. It might also land you in trouble with your local gendarmies as it "would cause a hazard to pedestrians" if you hit them. (I'm not b.s. ing here) Several folks up here got tickets for that last year, one lady artist glued plastic doll heads all over her car and that was the charge she got a ticket for. (like hitting them would'nt be hazardous in the first place. Cheers Aviator

Hey Jason quick question for yoo.. In your avatar which year front end is that? I love the built in driving lights.

Chapman88SR5

does any one else think i would be ticketed?

Jason B

Thanks!

It's a 97 front end, but I added a new lower lip front spoiler with built in lights, newer grille, clear corners, clear bumpers, newer headlights, etc.

Here's a bigger pic:

I don't think you would. It would really depend how picky they are in your area. Are the local police known to pull people over for everything?

I've sold 5 of them and no problems reported. It's a safety mirror used in Japan when parking to see blind spots. Since their trucks are right hand drive it's more functional.

You shoud check with CDUFF7. He listed one for a second gen on ebay that ended a couple of days ago.
