   Are the DTM ones the stubby ones that offer crap vision?
   
   Main thing to consider with aftermarket mirrors is that often the baseplates are shockingly pathetic. They fit, but where there should be a decent seal against the door to stop leaks the aftermarket ones dont provide it.
   
   When i first had my car i had the evo style mirrors and i ended up with a very soggy interior.

    Yeah thats the ones, can't see shit out of them. I hate mine, its a definite no! They rattle at speeds which is annoying.

    Thanks a bunch guys I'm going to AVOID then!! I'll track down some cheap 106's and fit them instead if this will offer a better fitment?

    106 mirrors will offer a perfect fitment as they use the same base plates as a Saxo
