need instalation help!
have any of you guys ever ordered the 4 inch peep mirrors off ebay? i ordered a set in feb. mine came in a box, glass not inside the mirror, i spent hours trying to get the mirror to sit into place then put this little plastic ring around there to hold it in and i couldnt get the ring all the way in and the mirror still rattled and fell out so being very up set wit hte product i emailed the company i got them from and got no responce... twice. this pissed me off even more. i come home from work yesterday to find they had sent me two more mirrors. no apology note or nothing just shipped out two mirrors. well low and behold im having the same problem with these ones i had with the other pair.... have u guys ever ran into this on these mirrors?

Re: need instalation help!
Mine came assembled guess I got lucky. I would have been upset. Imagine you could take them to a glass shop, shouldn't be too expensive. Good to know though to ask if the glass mirrors are installed when ordering thru ebay. By the way I can't see much of anything thru mine even after adjusting them for an hr. But they look good.

Re: need instalation help!
Send that crap back to them for a refund and go with another vendor....
Did you use a credit card or paypal? |

paypal. the first set i ordered arrived just like this. as did the second set. i sent two emails to the vendor with no reply so i left poor feedback, and then 2 days later another set shows up on my door... it just really aggravates me!

Re: need instalation help!
Give up and order a set from Mooneye's or Speedway. Chalk another one up for shady eBay vendors.

Re: need instalation help!
Did they come from a place in Az.? If so, walk away & order more. That guy is a rip off artist. Did you cut that trim piece off?

What part of AZ is he in, does he have a shop? I can cruise by there and see what's up, if nothing else, get some idea's for you on how to put these things together. OR Send the mirror's to me and I'll check them at him like Ninja stars!! Too bad I didn't see this sooner, were having an AZ`meet-n-greet tomorrow, we could of all rolled over for a visit!!! Seriously, if you need some help, let me know!!!
