Does anyone know where to find RE mirrors?

I've been looking all day for someone who carries these mirrors, with no luck. I would like an original but I know with its age it might be impossible to find, so I'm willing to go for a replica if that is easier found. If you have any info on this item could you please chime in?

(here's a pic of them)





Thanks in advance!

I would pm CircuitTheory or Japan2la as I've seen them sell used ones before. Good luck.

These kind of mirrors that are very close to the window like re-amemiya, r-magic type 1 etc etc are made for RHD cars and the visibility from the driver on the LHD car might suffer a little bit on the LHD cars due to the angle they are positioned.

I'm sure all the mirrors they sell are adjustable.

This guy is correct. I've had them on my car since they came out over 5 years ago.
I had to adjust them to suit me and my LHD car. Once you get use to it, it is not so bad. Just thought that you should know BEFORE you get em. My friend in TX had some in his garage somewhere. Email me ur # and I'll check tomorrow.

500 seems way too pricey. but if i had the extra 500 for those mirrors i would get them with no hesitation.
