I just ordered ebay #200083416016, I will post a review after I install them. The BLIND SPOT is a killer to deal with, especially driving in NY. Thanks OMF for all the info.

they are NOT OEM mazda parts though I do not doubt the functionality of them... quality is my only concern

It states on the auction OEM. He is the only person I found with them, he also has 99.6 % rating. They look just like your, except with the blueish tint. I will see when i get them.

Well I will wait to see...... if you recall I asked you where to get them and you couldn't tell me. These were the only ones I found.

The auction claims the parts are manufactured by the same factory that handles the Mazda parts; it doesn't claim these are Mazda parts themselves... seems like "OEM" is often used in contradictory contexts (see wikipedia)... I've seen some folks here use "OE" I believe to distinguish between something like "Mazda OEM" versus "OEM factory".

So the auction details are quite possibly accurate and neither of you are technically wrong; but as you noted - same factory (whether you call that OEM or not) doesn't answer quality, etc... hopefully it does imply proper fit :)


Let us know how it goes.

I asked the seller again in a email after I won, if they are OEM and if not to cancel my order. He assured me they are and he has a GREAT track record. I will post my review soon.

How did this turn out? Just wondering if you pop the old mirrors out or how they disconnect? Thanks

Popped right out and right back on, but I ended up returning them for a full refund, to hard to adjust to, and 1 of the heating elements didn't work
