i'm thinking rather than use rhd mirrors, you can also use philippine versions as we (us/canada and us) drive on the correct side of the road. LOL. Thai DM and JDM have those too, but they are RHD. Im not sure if that's going to matter since you're going to transfer the mirror base to yours anyway.
so the JDM sedan mirrors are the same as USDM/Canadian version ?

Any way to order a cheap set from asia ?

Thanks

the jdm is the same as USDM/Canadian version insofar as the body style of the entire car goes. insofar as the mirror assembly goes, they seem to all look the same, though i've looked carefully at the pictures of the yaris/yaris sedan/xd over there and it seems that the mirrors have a different pattern at the back, insofar as the clips go. even your xd ones are different from your yaris.

which means that the white plastic part of the motor also have a different pattern, and if youll need to replace your mirrors someday, you may have to source out from a country that has a similar clip pattern, or swap out the white plastic part of the motor that attaches to the mirror glass.

cheap from asia? dunno, but definitely not cheap from japan. soon probably and most likely from thailand. if you want real cheap, you'll have to wait for 2-3 years and it will be most likely from the philippines. LOL





here you go: our mirror (glass) and motor clips are farther apart than yours over there, with some clip locations that we don't have. we only have the 2 hooks and 2 clips--while you have 2 hooks and 4 clips.

that's also a comparison between mirrors between scion xd and yaris mirror clips. they are in different locations too. the top one i believe to be yaris, and the bottom, xd. the hooks are in different locations.
