I'm a bit confused. How come you're taking off the mirrors to install the CF covers? Isn't that a little too much work?

Carbon fibre mirroes for C63 coupe

Hi were the mirrors for the C63 coupe? I am trying to find CF side mirrors for the coupe but finding it difficult. Mercedes want to charge $3800 per mirror which is ridiculous. Let me know how it all goes. Thanks, Thomas

theturkster, i took off my mirrors and tried to get the housing off using stangxs' step by step, however, i realized that for 2012, they completely changed the inside of the mirror. It isn't assembled the same way. At least between the regular light and the led after 2010, which is what we have. Good luck and let me know if it works out as i would like the same. Also, can you beat this ?? :P


thinking of sending my car to kuwait and selling it there, or putting it on q8car.com, you think there is a market for it ?
