Ganador Mirrors for LHD???
want to buy myself a set of cf Ganador Mirrors but i heard that they wont fit for LHD (which makes sence because they are only produced for RHD).now on to my question....which is: is it possible to modify them so that they would also fit LHD????

Re-cut yes, I have them on my car powered with turn signal leds...visibility below average...be careful switching lanes you'll usually find someone curious in your blindspot and these mirrors will make it harder to detect them.
so no ganadors for me....any other good looking suggestions?

I've had a few sets of Ganadors on my cars. I have NEVER had a problem seeing out of them. *This was on my daily car too.
Also, I wouldn't bother getting the "carbon fiber" ones. Last time I saw them, they are carbon look.

Yeah you can remove the glass.
I would leave it though. Others as well as myself don't seem to have problems with the mirrors.
It's up to you though.
Enjoy the mirrors.

i don´t mind not seeing everything in the mirrors....but since i live in germany and i have to get my street legal again (after putting the mirrors on) should be a hard time with seeing only 30% (compared to stock mirrors).
i thought about modifing the position of the glas itself, so that it would be easy to fine tune it via the electric motors.....if this is possible.
but has anyone good high res pics of those mirrors unmounted?
maybe with the glass off would also help me.

The lenses are held on by 2 plastic threaded... studs (for lack of a better term) as well as a ball joint in the middle.
The 2 studs provide the movement of the electric mirror as well.
On my first set, I never removed the glass, but on my second set, I happened to get them secondhand and the lenses were taken out by the previous owner, so I had to put them back in.

I don't think so.
I just took some photos of my mirrors in my car.
I'll upload them tonight when I get home and post them tomorrow or tonight to give you an idea (hopefully) of what it's like.
With the motors, you can adjust the mirror up, down, left, right. You can set it to whatever position you want. There is a large range of movement.
