Like I found when I had the RX-8 Import screen changed and found the mirror plinth was wrong I\'m guessing you have just found the same thing.

Just had a look and just the UK interior mirror costs £100.20 to buy :eek:

May be cheaper to get a screen guy to use your old plinth and glue it on instead

Recently encountered the same problem with a new screen, if done by insurance there is a possibility they may replace the mirror as well :yes

i had one but sold it a little while back...im 99% sure that the mirror base is the same as those fitted to a mitsubishi fto...if you get stuck you could use a mirror from there...however they have a built in light so obviously that wont work..hth

Any chance of measuring this as have seen an evo7 rear view mirror but, the seller is advising it will not fit as measures the clip is 24mm wide 30 mm long and deep 3mm :2Confused (pic in next thread)

...and the clip on my windscreen is approx 33mm wide, 50mm long and 10mm deep :2Confused:2Confused:2Confused

If it is the same as the Jap spec one, then I just got one from RHD Japan which wasn\'t too expensive (well, it was cheaper than the UK price on this thread!).
