Do you even know if your 2.5 is pre-wired for those side mirrors? You can get the covers for $158.80 each from everything Nissan if urs is pre-wired. Good luck man!

If you're gonna pay that much, you might as well buy the different covers from Everything Nissan, a spool of 16awg wire, wire taps and do it yourself and save yourself 200 bones! Here's the website for the covers.

I believe the bulb is included. You just have to buy the mirror assembly + outer cover (X2 each of course). The outer cover comes unpainted.

If it is indeed plug and play, I may once again have the desire to do this as well. I was discouraged with the whole lack of harness for the fog lights on a 2.5...........

Please keep this tread alive as you get this done!

Cool ill provide pics withe install process if i get a chance may be a while i just got the car and im not wanting to mod too much for now. Just wheels and an intake for now, But I will bring it back up later on as I get the parts and stuff. IMO the side markers int he mirror assembly is a nice "luxurious" touch, Like when lexus first busted em out, everyone was like DAMN!!!

Not true. The covers do come painted already or color code matched. I know this from experience as I had my left mirror replaced about 2 weeks ago. I was there when they opened the box. I believe it is powdercoated. There are no bulbs in the assembly either. they come with LEDs.

Dangeris: You ordered them from everythingnissan or the dealer? Remember how much they were? The ones I bought were unpainted and this is from nissandirect.

JCothron:Check out my post here for more info on getting the side mirrors:zer...14042And I'm not flaming at all for not using the search, I KNEW exactly what I was looking for and it took me a while to find that post...Basically you can order the assemblies, they will bolt right on, the blinkers and defrost will function normally. Cost is about 280$ for the parts shipped plus paint for the covers, unless Dangeris has a way to get the covers painted already (they are a separate part from the mirror itself).

Nice. LEDs are even better! In response, I was going off information my Nissan Parts Manager gave me. If I was misinformed, I apologize. Still this sounds pretty sweet! I may have to fore go my next trip to Blackhawk for a new set of mirrors!!!

I'm back babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!

I got mine form the dealer and they were replaced under warranty because there was condensation behind the signal. When the dealership ordered it, they told my that it would have to be painted. but after 4 days they called me back and said they received the mirror assembly and that they didn't need to paint it. It had already some from Nissan in code red! I never saw the price though sorry. On the bill it said $0.00.
