quality of ebay side mirrors
hi all,
so my 4runner has one mirror from an 86 and one correct 88 mirror. thinking about getting the correct ones.
there are a bunch on ebay. anybody have any experience with some of these companies? "kool vue" and "amautoparts"
do they actually fit and work? are they crap?

I got some from that discount auto parts and they seem okay. I havent had any problems with them yet although the plastic dosnt seem as strong as stock so im pretty sure they wouldnt survive a hit from something

Mine don't hold there position on the interstate. When I get over 70 they rotate down a little so that I'm looking at the ground instead of behind me. I tried to tighten them but it didn't work so next I'm going to try and roughen up the "ball and socket" joint so they grip better.

I just got one from Am auto, very light, feels cheaply made. I only bought it to keep inside the truck incase i get pulled over for no mirrors on the half doors. thought about putting it on, but after seeing how flimsy it seems...ill just keep it with me.

I've been thinking about getting these. I thought I had decided to leave the stocks, but after seeing this thread I can't decide again. You guys that have bought the cheap-o's think they are worth it?:
