engelmann mirrors, fitted as standard on the german kadett gte. they come up for sale on ebay fairly regularly, more likely to get them on www.ebay.de if you're prepared for the language and payment hassle. |

How much is reasonable to you? I have some.
I ask reasonable because these go for about 100 quid on english ebay all the time. |

i've just sent some messages to some german dude on ebay.de to find out how much it will be to send some over. just let me know how much you want for yours as it would probably save a lot of hassle. cheers |

Nope, the EU models didnt get rear opening quarter windows either. Better for security tho. |

Not sure if it would make much difference but they are normally mounted on the doors. I still agree that the passenger side mirror is pretty useless. |
