The 97 Trans am's came with them and I have them on mine (see pic in album) by clickiing on sig below. They are not as tinted as the european ones but did make a noticable difference. You can get them from the dealer. PM me if you want the p/n and I will look it up for you. <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

This topic just came up on the other board just the other day, so I ran out and took a picture of my driver's side mirror on my 98 T/A. Theyre pretty noticable and make a big different IMO. Whenever I drive someone else's car without them I notice it.

This picture was taken with a white piece of paper against my window to show contrast. The light source is a white Halogen 1 million candlepower spot light.

Default blue tinted side mirrors?

i have seen on some higer end cars blue tinted side mirrors and have read that some early 4 gen firebirds came with the blue tinted mirrors and was wondering if someone knew that part number for them or if there was an aftermarket company that would make them for my camaro (2002). thanks for the replies.

A friend of mine has them on his '98 'bird. It's a very, very faint blue that's really hard to see in my opinion....
