Hopefully I'll have a few pics of them on the car tomorrow. Probably not fitted, but to get an idea

yeah I thought that as soon as DK mentioned it
and in reference to RS6's point, again, anything is an improvement on my current mirrors as they are chipped and scratched to bugger

I must admit that I had to think about it
anyway, I expect pictures when I log on tomorrow night, chop chop
Ha ha, I'll do my best, weather permitting.
Wondering though, when it comes to bonding it, what's the best way to do it? Is there some kind of specialised bonding agent? Is there something that can be taken off easily enough afterwards, or do we think that maybe getting new covers might be the way to go, just in case of a change of mind?

Ooo, didn't think about Blu Tackblu tack
And no RS6, double sided tape won't be up to it, because water will get to it and it will loose adhesiveness. It would probably be an OK solution to try it mind you

couple of nine inch nails
no nails stuff is good, although not sure it would ever come off again. Might do if you heated it up and carefully took the covers off
Now you're being silly. How the hell will a pair of these guys hold them on?couple of nine inch nails
OK, I've been out to the car and taken a few photos. The next step is to contact the seller and advise him that I want my money back. Here's why:
Are they anything like the same shape naturally?
NOPE!
Are they right when held down in place?
NOPE!
And was the £6 delivery charge worth it?
NOPE!
I could live with some of the alignment issues, but the fact that they cover so little by the hinge makes it clearly a mirror-cover-cover and I couldn't put up with that.

Hmm. I like my vents mind you.
I've emailed the guy already, if I don't get a reply in 24 hours then I'll take it via the official eBay returns process

Hmm, maybe. I think with all of the fixings that it would probably be too complicated though, and the extra cost will eat in to my brake-refurb and climatronic replacement funds 
Surely the bloke is molding these around the original covers so he must know they don't fit right?
