None such mirrors exist.

Most people swap out the doofy ass looking mickey mouse mirrors on the +03 models for older dual post mirror style.

Chaos speaks the truth.

speaking of truth, is that a freakishly large real chick on the hood of your car, or did someone do a little photchopping?? is it just too good of a job of angle perception? or is it one of them goofy lenses that disrupts the field of depth, or am i just retarded?

stay tuned, these questions, and more, will be answered on our next episode!!!! (ps sik will say ima tard)

i'm trying to convince myself it could just be the angle, and maybe a lens.

I just don't believe it, gotta be a 'chop. besides, you know how hard it is for blue light to be picked up in daylight? sadly i know the red/blue/yellow/white thing from lightbar research, but that's that... and the blue in the front air dam area was the first thing i noticed, then thought "well her shadow would make that somewhat more visible, but it wouldn't look that bright"....then i realized "dayum thats a big b!tch!!!"

seriously c'mon tell me, i'm going to be thinking about this all night

****edit**** go to his screen, there's more pics. it's a depth trick is all.. and i'm guessing it was on the darkish side, so he did a bit of overexposure.. that's now my guess

Its a real girl, on my car... but the photo is edited to show the colors better, mainly the under-glow.

Back to the subject... I wanted to take those ugly mirrors off and replace them with dual posts.
But I need to find a place that sells them first.

Sadly I only seen them on SE's for some reason?

The 99-02.5 dual posts fit all 03-05 models. GT and SE are he same, difference is, SE's were unpainted, GT dual posts were color matched.

If that pic is real in your avy, the chick must be seven foot tall, looks so out of proportion, brah.

*EDIT*
Looked at his profile, and I 'd.

Both. But all GT models have power mirrors, so get power mirrors. Also, get them color matched. Looks so much cleaner.

Actually dual posts do differ...seems like 99s(at least mine,.which is a very early gt) have a dif bolt pattarn than latter ones. I found out the hard way. Also I wouldmt think it would be very hard to make em heated.

Uh, no. All 99-05 GA mirrors are the same. My first pair were from a 99 SE.

Unless you're pulling a set of 97-03 Grand Prix dual posts. Those are different.
