Yes, I ordered the 2010+ but they also offers a 08-09 version. Quality seems solid for Chinese made.

Did it come with the LED lights and so forth?

Sorry for all the questions, there was a thread about some on ebay a few weeks ago and people were saying it was just the "cover" and not the housing for the mirror.

edit: NVM, answered my own questions, thanks for the link!

No problem. It came with the LED for the courtesy lights, but as far as I could see (haven't installed it) it doesn't come with LEDs for the turn signals. But I'm assuming you can just reuse your existing ones.

It's a replacement for the mirror housing, not a cover.

Be sure to post some pix once you've got it installed. CF mirrors are going to look sick with your car!

Thanks for the link but what i'm looking for is how do you take apart the mirror to put on the Carbon housing. I am aware of the install to the door of the car just not sure how to take apart the physical mirror. Any help anyone?

It's pretty simple, I've disassembled my mirrors to get the lens "smoked" I didn't look up any instructions, but it's pretty straight forward. You pull the mirrors off (with a little force), and you'll see a 4-6 hex screws, unscrew them to remove the motor, and frame, then you'll find ~4 more hex screws once you remove that to get the whole assembly apart. I didn't give you exact directions, just from what I can remember last year.

I'll give you more detail/pictures if you 'd like once I get these CF covers.

can you post some pics of the actual ones you got? thanks! All the ones I've seen listed are of "Layovers" that you stick on... ebay listings are sometimes misleading.

I will post some once I get off work. In the mean time, check the links I posted above. The pictures posted by the seller are fairly accurate to the product.
