Hey, guys, some of you know about my little project to make my Celica a bit more younger and unique looking. I spend a lot of time on these, experimenting with different things, failing and redesigning. Anyway, here is the finished project.
And a video: Plexiglass lit with nine orange LEDs, almost flush with the mirror casing(pokes like 1mm). If you don't like them, what would you change? Would you consider buying them and more importantly, how much are you willing to pay for them? This post has been edited by The_enD: Sep 13, 2013 - 5:06 PM -------------------- |

Do the folding mirror functions still work, and did you re-wire from the side-markers up to the side-mirrors? As for payment, good question. I'd be willing to send in my mirrors if the price is right! |

I'd be willing to send in my mirrors if the price is right! Yes they fold and yes that's how it's wired. I use the same route as the stock wire for the electric motor runs. Seems like you guys like them, but no one is able to come up with a price. -------------------- |

Seems like you guys like them, but no one is able to come up with a price. Buyers don't come up with a price, the seller does. The questions you have to ask yourself: How much do parts cost? Will people ship me their mirrors or will I have to provide them? What is my labor worth? (if you want to add in labor costs) etc, etc |

Will people ship me their mirrors or will I have to provide them? What is my labor worth? (if you want to add in labor costs) etc, etc We live in different continents with different economy. For me $70 may be a quite big amount for that kind of mod, for some it's will be a no brainer for the look it provides for them. Something around $50-60 is in my head after all materials and labor, without shipping and the mirror case. I might have to send a "new" pair to the customer, so he is not bothered with anything until they arrive- dissembling and driving his car with no covers. After they arrive, he mounts them and send me his old covers and I pay for them, it will be a win/win since I won't have to bother with going to junk yards looking for mirror cases. And another problem, they most likely won't sell me just the cover, but the whole mirror with the glass and motor assembly, which I don't need. But if someone doesn't send me back their old case, the price will be higher. The whole complication comes from the fact that I am not selling a product, but rather a service. -------------------- |
