Where did you get the mirrors? I don't know where you would get the switches but I wouldn't mind having the JDM mirrors.

how do you plan on seeing out of mirrors that were designed for a right hand drive car?

How does that exactly make a difference?

^^ the "objects are closer than they appear..." will be on the driver side not the passenger side

simple - the mirrors are made for the driver sitting on the opposite side of the car and are curved to suit a right hand seated driver. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but on most cars it tends to give worse vision than oem due to the change.

can you change the glass?

Dude they will work. I have a JDM car and you can sit in the passenger seat (your driver seat) and set the mirrors so that the passenger (your driver) can see properly.

As far as I'm aware, the glass isn't "curved" in any way to assist the driver. I know where you're coming from- but even if this was the case, you can always get two pieces of glass cut and put them on the jdm mirrors to solve the problem.

i did some research and it looks like you can swap the lenses and internals.
