sorry for the crapy cell phone pics but when i was in the junkyard and i found that 1st gen legend rear view mirrors fit our cars...and they are a lil bit wider and taller so you get a better view

I was expecting a jdm mirror to fold up when the car is off.

I just got rid of the overhead one and put up a glass mount mirror. I had found one in someones trash years ago, mirror was broken spent forever finding mirror glass to fix it, it has the lights on the bottom side of it.

Jesse, can you post a pic of both mirrors bottom to bottom (basically side to side) so we can see the size differences better?

I like it. Great find.
