Thanks, guys!

They look good, but I prefer the mirror size of the OEM mirrors. This is going to require some compromise in viewing ability.

I'll take some head-on shots tomorrow.

I should have asked this before, but are are the actual mirror portions made for RHD? By that, I mean is the driver's side convex? And the passenger side a "normal" mirror?

Both mirrors are the same as far as vision goes IIRC.

That's why I didn't get these. They look phenomenal, but all I've heard is that they're made for RHD.

See I'm never able to get one solid answer. I agree with Robin, though, since I think it's made for RHD. I would actually buy them IF they were made for LHD. Actually, is there a place that can custom cut mirrors for you?

it's good that they don't make LHD versions of this mirror, that way I won't have to "waste" my money on these drop dead beautiful mirrors.

They are made for RHD. The driver side is fine, but the passenger side will not adjust in enough to be usefull. But there is a fix, have to work on it. Not sure if cutting new glass will do it, but worth a try to resolve.
I was resolved in settleing for just the kick *** look, but it can probably be fixed.
I'll let you know what I come up with.
