As above really. Are they a direct swap, or is there any fettling needed? Where is the best place to get them, and are they expensive?

Cheers

Yeah the shape was the main thing, but also the folding. Im new to the Seat world and have put a deposit on an LC, but prefer the LCR mirrors.

Not sure if mine has folding mirrors.

Theres no diff between LCR and LC mirrors in shape,
The shape of all Leons changed in 03 or summit, from Golf Mk4 to Teardrop,
I personally think the mk4 ones suit the Leon better!

Will have to try my mirrors out in abit. I know it's got some sort of mark on the joystick control at the 6'oclock point but don't know if the joystick twists that far

bcm there is a diff between lcr and lc mirrors have a look esp the earlier ones, one is teardrop one is square

the mirrors are the same on the LC and LCR.

during 2003, they updated the teardrop shape for all leons.
this took place towards the end of the 210bhp LCRs.


ive had a LC and LCR and the mirrors are identical.

its the date of manufacture, not model spec that dictates if they are square or teardrop shape.

If you did want to swap from square to teardrop, its not a direct swap and the plastic trim on the car is also a different shape.
however i cant see it being more complicated than that.
