CraftsSquare TCA-F Installed.
 

i love this thing. I ordered directly through CraftSquare in Japan...had it shipped to my pops place, and he shipped it to me via post. wife has yen from like a decade ago when yen wasn't so strong so it didn't cost me much... like in my head $450. :p

actual price was 55550JPY shipped to my door... or about $685 if USD.
Im thinking most vendors will sell these $800-850 range.

the order took about 4wks lead-time. it was originally scheduled to ship after GoldenWeek, but the guy pull-in for me and shipped 2wks in advance. :tup:

comparing with the stock dumbo ears it's almost like 1/2 the size...and obviously light weight.

installation took me no more than 15min per side taking my dandy time. :tup: there's really nothing to it. just take the door panel off, unscrew the stock mirror off, and swap with the TCA-F. do the window re-set and walla.
comes with illustrated instructions... it's in japanese but the illustration is plenty.

setting it up, all i did was drive around for a few mins, stopped the car, manually pivot the mirror to my liking. it's very easy to setup because the mirror is a convex reflection (not sure technical term) so it's very wide view. i can have a portion of the rear quarter reflecting in the mirror yet still have no blind spots. :tup: no more walgreens stick-on convex mirrors needed on your dumbo ears for those that used them. :ugh2: :rofl2:

also, no more stupid blind spot when making left-hand turns! :icon17: this is perfect because we have a lot of silly donation collecting people :icon14: in busy intersections and now i wont have to worry about hitting them.

highly recommended. :tup:

:tup: Nice, much better than Dumbo's mirrors that obstruct driver-side views.

I like these alot, I hate my blind spot mirrors >=( Will you help me order some for 685 when im ready? =D

Also is there a reason with these you had to remove the door panel? When I took mine off to do my wrap I just pulled back on the panel a bit and the backing plate came right out.

I had the same kind on my 350 but I couldn't make out what cars were behind me, especially when moving. They ended up more or less being reference points in traffic. Maybe there more sterdy now. I still would buy more. I love the look.

Took my Z out for a nice 2hr drive. No issue making out the car in mine. Like I mentioned earlier there is no vibration. :) its so easy to see around me now so its awesome! :tup:

Thanks. :D

Hahaha, I don't think I want to be a vendor. :rofl2: remember im a manufacturer type.

As for removing the door panel it is a compete replacement of the mirror from the mirror base. The mirror housing is CF core, mirror base is aluminum. Its beautifully handmade. :tup:

i love the mirrors bro.... makes me regret buying the carbon covers for the dumbo mirrors..... :(

i should order these, i have some yen lying around from my last trip to japan when 1 USD = 128 yen...

yep, now is a good time to put it to use. :tup:

Looks good Ken . Mike should put these on his Orange edition, these in orange would suit his "race car looks"'amlot better.

Thanks JB. :D yah definitely will go well on track cars. :p

Never a huge fan of those mirrors...I thought about them on my 350 but went with the ganadors instead...not sure if they're available for the 370 tho.
Btw, I have wrapped a set of the bases for someone back in the day in plain weave to match the mirrors...if you're interested.....

Oh nice, first set I that I have seen on a 370z and they look good. :tup:

Would u stop advertising crap on other people's threads? WTF...:ugh2:

Thanks! :tup:

Can you take a close up side shot of the mirror on the car. Is that the mounting holes I see from the outside?
