Are there side mirrors from other cars (Corolla, Camry, LS400, GS400, IS300, etc.) that has a mounting pattern like, or close to, the MKIII Supra?

I was contemplating on switching the side mirrors to something that can fold and has similar features (power mirrors is a necessity, defroster is would be good too).

I'm not looking for the JDM MKIII Supra power folding mirrors or Euro MKIII Supra manual folding mirrors. I'm just looking for something that is available in the U.S. that can be found in junkyards.

I appreciate any assisting information.

know you don't wanna hear this, but the only one's that'll fit decently (the door has a dip that you'd need to fill otherwise) will be euro manual folding mirrors...

Is this because you are cheap, and don't want something nice on your supra? :)
I suggest going to the junk yard with one of your mirrors and looking for something with a three hole pattern.

I've personally had 20 sets of euro mirrors in my garage, and they are the best quality mirror made for the A70.

I don't see how some of the mirrors from the Lexus sedans I just mentioned are considered "cheap". I just want something different.

Why did you have 20 sets of Euro Mirrors? Just wondering.

Yeah, I thought I would need to make a template of the mirror base so I can compare it to other cars at the local yard.

I was going to try mirrors from the fc3s. They almost fit, but there's some modifying required to the mirrors so I gave up. I just didn't feel like messing with it anymore.

If you consider your time worth any amount of $ just buying JDM or euro mirrors is the best way to go. If you're trying to kill time/want a project then it shouldn't matter what car they come off of, you could make it work.

You can make 5th gen Celica mirrors fit, the JDM versions fold..

look at the convertible black/white supra posted a few days ago, it has the USDM versions..

Yeah, pretty much I'm just looking for a little project. Looking for something that has a mounting pattern at least close to the factory mirrors would allow me to concentrate more on making it look like it belongs on the Supra.

A fifth generation Celica mirrors? A convertible Supra? I have got to see this. Searching now.

Did a search for the picture, could not find it.

I did find out though that the mirrors on the North American 5th gen Celicas are fixed. Celicas from outside markets had the folding mirrors.

I bet it still looks nice. I was hoping more to find it in local yards versus ordering online from overseas.
