Can you buy the original concept mirrors any where? I don't have a SSR but that would be one of the first things I would want to modify for the SSR.

I haven't ever seen the original mirrors, not close up. Is it possible they are close to the same as what is installed, only upside down? And err, left for right.

I'm not suggesting they can be swapped that way but it looks close.

Here is a link to a pic of the original side mirrors.

I believe federal guidlines for new vehicles prevented the production vehicle from toting the concept mirrors. My wife really liked the prototype mirrors and they actually went a long way to convincing her that I needed the ssr. Then of course it came without those cool high mount mirrors.

I wonder what the actual rule/rational is that prevents having the high mount mirrors.

I'm thinking back some old cars had mirrors mounted forward on the fenders.

BTW: Has any one seen the a-pillers without the cladding. Somehow I doubt the mount points are still being installed.
