Nothing wrong with EBay, if you know what you need to buy. Now that you know that the 04 to 14 are the same, you can resume looking for the best deal. I'm however an OEM type of guy; I have bought decent parts that were not OEM, I have bought used OEM, and I have bought cheap.

When I used to buy cheap, I usually ended up having to re-purchase, so in the long run, the part cost me more than if I simply had bought OEM or OEM quality in the first place.

I agree nothing better than OEM. Put aftermarket mirrors on and the view out of them suck.

I have really been wanting tow mirrors and was looking at some after market stuff. That is one thing that I was wondering about. The Glass. I know that not all glass is the same and that's one thing I was scared of. I had did some aftermarket mirrors on my old car and the glass SUCKed.
