Well replacing my mirrors will be first, because I am missing one mirror, and someone was recommending me to get gsr rims, but idk. Any recommendation on where to get the mirrors?

#137381 ya you have to take the passenger side door panel off then pop the panel of where th other side of the mirror would be and there should be 3 8mm bolts and a power clip(if powered)
its real easy it takes like 5-10 mins if that

but the hatch is a good start man!
cant wait to see its out come :thumb:

#137424 i have a cx and it came with a passenger mirror... dont fuck with taking your door panel off you can just take out the screw by the front of the panel and hold on to the panel while you put the mirror on it will save you time... because the manual window regulator has a horse shoe clip and they tend to fly off and turn the same color as the floor!

on my hatch the little plastic peice over the door panel if you know what i mean pops right off with a flat head screw driver. you will see all 3 holes for the bolts. any coupe/hatch mirror will fit.
