AU-TO BAHN L.E.D Mirrors INSTALLED!

Well, I finally installed the side mirrors. Took off door panels and wired everything up myself. Opinions please.

Are the mirrors a "usable" size? They don't retract/break-away anymore now, right? how tuff was the wiring?

Looks hot!

The Kit is Vertex Lang, I paid 2500$ the Mirrors were 380$ (I think). The wiring was not that hard to figure out. I scanned the instructions (japanese) and posted them here on the forum for help in interpreting. That was helpful. The mirror motor system works (both sides) and the l.e.d. signals are operational as well. Routing the wires was a little more difficult. There is a tube that connects between the door and the body that I had to snake the wires through. I will post more pics ASAP.

The car is lowered to 5 1/2" all the way around. It is lowered with the Espillar lowering springs. I plan on installing the TEIN Flex with the EDFC next month. Thanks everyone on the compliments. I constantly get the "thumbs up" while out driving. It feels good to know the work I put into the car (which I did 90% of the work myself) is appreciated by others as well.

Oh yeah, and as far as the break away on the mirrors, they will flex from the internal springs but will not fold flush with the body contour.
