    OP, but how is the quality or craftsmanship of your grill? ...$128 shipped isn't a bad deal for the full grill assembly.

    Edit: Sorry I just realized I was threadjacking your FJ Mirror thread

    Grill is not bad at all, I was very happy with it. You can swap it out in about 15 minutes. I like to be unique so I got rid of the Toyota emblem and replaced it with a 1972 Land Cruiser grill emblem.

    Landshark, I am diggin these mirrors and have been trying to figure out how to make them work for a while. Any chance you could snap a shot of the door mount and how you closed up the existing mount?

    Yes I'm very interested in this as well. In particular a close up shot of the gap where it meets the door how you mounted them, how you covered up the old mirror mount and wiring details. Many thanks.

    personally I like it. I was wondering how those fj mirrors would look on a current gen. now I have can see it, literally and figuratively. I had a grey 07 access cab prerunner and had come across a grey fj cruiser mirror. just didn't quite get to actually figure out how to mount it. how'd u do it? install pics/ thread? also, how's the visibility?

    if nothing else, try taking the light part of the fj mirror out and see about trying to put it in the Tacoma mirror.

    Are the lights functional? Not even sure how they work on an fj haha. Don't seem to put good output unless you upgrade the bulbs I'd assume
