Vehicle (http://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_107478/tm.htm#):96-00 2/3Dr Civics
Cost:$19 shipped
Installation:Required a socket wrench + extension, was very easy, just pop off the little plate in the corner of your window and then it was three bolts.The ebay cheapies i had before this were actaully easier to install becasue instead of the bolts, it was three screws. The way the mirrors sit makes it hard for a socket wrench to get back in there but a screw driver fits perfect. It just took a little longer butthey fit perfect.
Installation Time:10 minutes
Review: Got a great deal on them. These APC's actually are alot better than the ebay ones. With the ebays, they didnt seal perfectly and when i would go through the car wash or drive in the rain, water would leak in. The APC's have a foam/rubber seal around them that stops all the water from coming in. Also with the Ebays, the passenger side mirrors was warped. With the APCs, both mirrors are perfect, they are tinted blue (which stops bright beams from hurting your eyes), and they also have the "OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR" on them. Totally worth it. A very cheap upgrade that isnt rice because theyre just solid black w/o LEDs, instead of the fake CF with blue LEDs.
The new mirrors:
