Installed smoked sequential turn signals (www.amazon.com/gp/product/B098W4X2RF) and carbon fiber mirror caps today.

Hardest part was removing the OEM mirror caps. First step is to move the mirror to the full up and "in" position. Then grab under the mirror and pull harder than you think you should. The mirror will pop off the motor frame. Next step is to find the cover clip inside the mirror, it's a small paint colored clip. Here is the clip with a screw driver prying on it:


At this point, I just kinda wrangled the mirror cap to get it to pop off. I could not find any other clips, but it doesn't come of easily either. Can't really suggest a "best method" here. Next step is to remove the 2 T10 Torx screws holding on the OEM turn signals:


The turn signal pops right out, and a simple electrical connector swaps to the new turn signals. Put them in place and put the screws back in. Next step is to position the OEM mirror cover back on. There is a clip near the side glass that I put in position first, then I lowered the cover in to place, and gave it a decent "wrap" with an open hand to get the clip to pop back on.

Next was putting on the CF mirror caps. remove the double side tape cover:


Then in a quick and smooth action, position the new on to the OEM cap. Smooth it all around, and firmly press all the tape down. Here is the end result:

 

During my swap the parts guy damaged both stock Polaris White mirror covers! I covered the damage with Chinese CF covers which appear very tacky. Does anyone have a pair of stock white or black covers they are not using? Got $ Thanks, Sparky

 

TBH, I'm not happy with the stick on caps either. I have purchased the CF OEM cap from Harper Jaguar for the right side, and am souring the internet to find the left side (seems they are all sold out...). If anyone has a left side, please let me know!

 

Go to madness autoworks for replacement cf mirror covers. I have them and they look great and haven't showed any age.

 

Just lookin for Polaris White or Black OEM covers...anyone got any ideas?
tnx, Spark

 

About 2 yrs ago Jag put Carbon mirror caps and cf hood/side vents on a huge discount. Sold everything fast. They have only about 50 right side left and have for over a year. I a got lucky and bought them right befor they sold out. It took me a year to find a new CF oem diffuser. And almost 2 years to find the oem carbon fiber svr rear wing set. You can still get the rear wing stull ( they raised rhe price to 7k) And mounting bracket piece.1k)..but the actorory motor mechanism is unavailable( discontinued)..so it makes it useless. Also, side skirts are available still ( I think).

I would go madness autoworks. You will never find the oem other side or it will take you forever unless you get lucky. The only issue is matching with other carbon pieces ..the patterns might be different. That's one reason I kept mine all oem,To match.

 

I found one in Lithuania on eBay. Only cost me a kidney!

 

I know that seller( i think). He is asking $1800 for a oem pair. If you need impossible to find carbon parts..he is the go to.

 

Did you have to pull the side mirror itself off, I am a little confused by your directions?

Thanks

 

Not the whole mirror, just the mirrored glass itself. With the mirrored glass removed you can then remove the top cap cover on the front of the mirror assembly. There is a clip behind the mirrored glass you need to get to in order to remove the top cap.

Hope that helps clarify.

 

That did, thanks!!

 

+1 - I ordered two sets from Harper because they were so cheap and they doubled my order - sent another box with mirror caps, mats, and some various parts a few days later - I offered to keep the extras at a discount and sold the extra caps. I have most of the madness (Koshi) parts and factory caps, hood vents, and power vents and everything matches well.
