    Hi Guys.

    Need to replace the mirrors on a 2010 blade.

    Looking at after market ones - any thoughts? Not too bothered if they fold in..just need them to look decent and do the job.

    Any suppliers in the UK? or does anyone know anyone selling a pair?

    Thanks

    Is there much saving going non-oem? I would expect genuine ones coukd be had for say £60 the pair?

    non oem are £35 from china..for the pair..

    I just bought these..

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331751830194?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

    Guessing they are they same..but just in the UK and i will get them tomorrow..

    Originals do come up for £60 odd for one but its a waiting game, i have sold many for this...

    Mark sells them for like £150 each! There is a pair for sale in the for sale section for £150 for the pair - bit over priced..

    the side lights flashed alternately with the indicator with the copies I bought. Just swapped over the internals with OEM

    Not sure what you mean by alternately?

    Does that mean i need to buy replacement indicators? for these?

    as i was going to sell the ones i remove from the bike..not in the best of conditions, but still will get £50 per mirror.

    see my video

    after-market on the left as you view it. The outers on my old indicator were fecked so just swaped the internals. (mine were folding versions)
    The day light was also orange not white. Perhaps I got US versions?

    Bought a set ftom china.

    Then bought a set of oem.

    China set don't turn back in on themselves, so a knock to s mirror could end up with a cracked top fairing.

    Not so cheap then....

    I thought you had some for sale? Why the Chinese additions?
