teardrop mirrors
As im closer to making final decisions b4 painting .. I'm wondering if the teardrop xy falcon mirrors require special spacers to suit a capri.
I know and have normal xb ones but Im liking the idea of the teardrops..

No special spacer for the teardrops, they go straight on, but as whooligan said, they are useless, i have two cars with them and going to change them to the xb sytle mirrors.
