Im sure I saw some saxo fitment Veilside mirros in Redline or somewhere a couple of issues ago.
Anyone know what they were, or where to get them?
Cant remember the details? smileys/smiley5.gif

Hmmm, I cant see them on his site smileys/smiley5.gif
They wont be proper Veilside for that price though... I shall have to wait for Gaz to turn up.

8th August 2004, 21:12
Ahh, Ive just realised.. I need to have side repeaters combined in the mirrors really, as I removed them from the car body smileys/smiley9.gif

I know Nemesis sell them (obviously really if you look at the pic above), but they are fucking dear. Over £200 i think!

Hey, thanks for that Dan!
What do ya think?? They look OK dont they? And they have indicators too!
Any better designs around?? I'm on quite a tight decision time scale smileys/smiley5.gif
Will need to get a price from Gaz now smileys/smiley2.gif
Simo
9th August 2004, 00:30
Oh, and whats the pole?? Is that related to the wiring?
dannsax
9th August 2004, 00:35
i think they look spot on , they would look tasty . . .
no worrie's mate smileys/smiley2.gif , yeah i was wondering about the
pole business , i presume so to smileys/smiley5.gif
ethier way your car still look's like it's going sideway's while parked smileys/smiley17.gif
Smithy
9th August 2004, 00:36
Like the Veilsides the best, but if you need indicators then they'll look good. Must be related to the wiring i would have thought. Dunno how tho? smileys/smiley5.gif

Just had a gander at Nemesis Performnace site. The mirrors are £203 for a set and are electric, but there was no mention of a saxo/universal fit. They are all tailored to a certain car e.g Evo6, Skyline, RX-7 etc. Presume you could buy any set and get them to fit smileys/banghead.gif smileys/bash.gif smileys/smiley4.gif
Simo
9th August 2004, 00:45
I like the Veilsides too.. Ive emailed them for more details... but they are £240 and have no indicators smileys/smiley5.gif
Ive considered fitting a pair of 106GTi mirrors.. coll and subtle... I need to decide pretty wuick though!

Yeah, REVS said they were Saxo fitment, Nemesis dont mention them.. so Ive emailed them to confirm...
Smithy
9th August 2004, 00:48
Simple. Car park crow bar and a parked up 106GTi! smileys/smiley4.gif I like the M3 type mirrors with the top bar removed. Maybe Nemesis don't want to be seen supplying stuff for lowly saxo's!

9th August 2004, 07:46
The ones G sells have indicators too they have like covers to go over the indicators i think oh and i ddint mean the were genuine ones they are copys of them

Simo
10th August 2004, 01:06
No indicators though?? smileys/smiley5.gif
And Nemesis didnt bother to reply to my email! smileys/smiley5.gif
Dannysp8
10th August 2004, 01:26
The indicator thing is up to u mate but if it was me i would go veilside smileys/happy.gif
Yer Nemisis are cocksuckers for gettin back to u and they prob dont have them in stock, they will just say we will order them and when u ask them how long they will be they will just say ' how longs a peice of string' !!! wankers !!!!!!!
Simo
10th August 2004, 02:06
smileys/smiley5.gif
Yeah, first off I was thinking Veilside for sure, as I like buying pukka stuff!
But, then my "its only a feckin Saxo" hea dkicked in.. smileys/smiley29.gif
I dont know what to do.. and dont have time to think about it really smileys/sad.gif
BTW, the cars learnt to underfuel again! smileys/smiley7.gif Damn thing... Will probably just leave it for GMC to take a look at now.
Bring on the new car!!!
Dan
10th August 2004, 02:49
u selling the sax then if ur getting a new car??
barrett
10th August 2004, 03:45
From what simo has said to me if he was to get a new car he would keep the saxo how ever it would retired from daily duties and left for a weekend / track car. But then again things may have changed since then smileys/smiley2.gif

12th August 2004, 21:19
the fk automotive jobbie's are slighty dif , it's the indicator by the look's of thing's . . . .
i like ethier of them , i like the idea of being able to
cover up the indicator , that's quite trick smileys/smiley4.gif

What what what is this all about my friends
Ultra Auto Wing Mirrors - £119.99 all in including base plates on a 3 day delivery from www.GSMotorsport.com
These are pretty much the same as FK.... i also supply the FK ones, but there is a HUGE problem with delivery from them and much more so its easier to get them from the ultra line. smileys/smiley4.gif
If you want some email me:

Why are they so expensive in the UK G?
I know you're not exactly the most expensive shop around, but they're £ 119.99 and only 100 euros around here (79 euros for the mirrors and 19.95 for the baseplates). That under 70 pounds!
BTW no offence to you Mister Sleigh as I'm sure you're one of the cheapest around. smileys/smiley14.gif
GSMotorsport
13th August 2004, 00:55
Well there brand new to the UK market, so prices start high.
I believe some companies do them slightly cheaper than me, but you are getting the customer service and after care second to none smileys/happy.gif
Not in office so not got exact prices, but off top of my head:
Base plates are around: £19.95
Delivery : £7.50
Mirrors: £91.00
I will see if i can get them cheaper
Frevo
13th August 2004, 11:33
They're brand new over here too (actually the first time I've seen them was on my own car and that was in april smileys/smiley14.gif ).
Simo

there both by fk - automotive , i think there both quite origional , what do you guy's think ?
Ripper3
16th August 2004, 23:51
They're so original that they were ripped off an M3 Evo then had indicators stuck on! smileys/smiley17.gif It's just wot i think tho, but M3 mirrors need 2 b replaced, they're used by every1!
dannsax
16th August 2004, 23:53
point taken , but what im saying is , i think they would suit the line's of my wee sax , and they look quite fresh with the indicator smileys/smiley12.gif
Ripper3
17th August 2004, 00:00
oh, thats wot u mean, still prefer DTM mirrors, i think they used to b cool, but i c em on so many cars, that i got bored of em, Im just waitn 4 Mynheer 2 make their own style mirrors, but they'll probably b a bit too mad for a Saxo!

This was a misprint the mirrors are only available for Japanese cars.
Apologies for any inconvenience.
Kind regards,

Be inventive simo like with your arches....make your own base plate for the veilside mirrors.
Then get a mould taken and sell them on making yourself some money.

i dont think i like those mirrors BMK, the indicatiors i dont think look quite right on them for my liking. i do quite like those ultra jobbies that 'greensaxo' posted a while bac, (think they r the same as what simo has ordered) and as my car is on the change, i think the standard mirrors are gonna have to go to!

am going to TRY and hopefully get mine sprayed today! where they difficult at all to spray? and what did u have to mask up?
Simo
31st August 2004, 15:48
They have been sprayed at Sabre Auto Styling...
You could do them yourself, with an aerosol... but if you do, make sure you use plenty of lacquer...

Its quite interesting that they made them with the caps on the indicators....
I wonder if anyone will leave them like that?
Simo
5th September 2004, 14:37
Its an interesting option, but dont think peeps will leave them capped... theres sht loads of writing stamped onto them smileys/smiley17.gif
Handy to have, just incase an indicator gets smashed though!
GSMotorsport
5th September 2004, 15:35
Thats true. I guess if you had them flushed in to the mirror because you had the indicator else where? maybe?
Simo
