S4 & S5 Aero Mirror Question

Right now I have S4 aero mirrors on my 10th. I'm looking at buying a pair of S5 aero's for cheap but the glass on the driver side is broken/cracked. The seller claims everything else works fine just I have to replace the glass/mirror part. Would the mirror part from my S4 mirror fit into the S5 or are they different sizes/shapes?

if you have a 10ae why in the hell would you want s5 mirrors on it? the s4 ones look better anyways fits the body better hense why they came on the S4.

The body lines on the S4's and S5's are almost the same. IMO the S4 TII mirrors are chunky/blocky/square and the only thing that doesn't match the car.

My car is far from being a stock 10th AE. Yes it won't see a bodykit but I think the mirrors would spruce it up a little bit.

Hell I don't even have the 10th badges on it anymore, some ****** stole my driver side one so I took the other one off when I painted it...

Mirrors are like $50 and I'll prob just find another mirror for the driver side(the whole thing just not the glass). Or see what my local buddy at a glass shop can come up with...

I think the best mirrors were on the S4 N/A models, they match the lines of these cars perfect... The S4 turbo mirrors were most definatly the ugliest mirrors ever designed
