I've got a JDM GT-Four, and I really like the look of the USDM mirrors...and always see people swaping over for the JDM ones....
If someone wants to do a straight swap, they can have mine in exchange for there US ones.

Anyone keen?

didn't realise the controls were different. The US ones are still eletric aye? non folding I know, but you can still move them from inside the car with some form of control?

The controls look the same except for the folding button. There is some sort of device needed to make this work on a alltrac. I do not think anything special is needed to use the alltrac ones on the gt4.

Yeah, If you could take pics of all the wiring we'd love you forever. Converting from JDM to USDM is easy. Let me know if you want to know how.

just a thought...what do you guys pay for the full jdm setup? just wondering as they are a dime a dozen over here, all the Z-R, GT-R and GT-Four Celica's have the same folding mirrors....might be able to help a few of you guys out....depending on how much time I've got free etc....

It may be cool, but the mirror doesn't really hang out that much further than the wide fenders of an Alltrac, so I don't really see the point. I guess on a JDM 185, it might be a bit more useful.

Still, I like the looks of the stock Alltrac mirror better anyways. I'm not a JDM fanboy. :smokes:

  • Haha, that's the same reason I changed.... Well sorta.... I think the stock US ST185 mirrors are super ricey. M3 style mirrors installed by toyota. That's the reason I swapped mine. The folding was just a bonus.

No, they are not "M3 style" mirrors.
It's the BMW that install "Celica style" mirrors on M3. :lol:

I don't think they look ricey. I've seen them transplanted on an Eclipse before though.
