In looking for alternatives for the small stock Rav 4 mirrors , I was told that the mirrors from Toyota's Siena might fit as their mounting plates seem to visually be the same .
Has anyone tried any after market mirrors on their Rav's ?
I've seen a few sets on E Bay but it is hard to find power ones .

Over the last couple of days , I have actually parked next to both versions of the Sienna and I would have to say that their mirrors won't fit .
The triangulated mounting areas are the wrong shape .
This a bit of a bummer as it was a "seasoned" Toyota parts guy that gave me this glimmer of hope .

I think the RAV mirrors are a fairly decent size... that's just my opinion though... It would be cool if there were some Euro or JDM mirrors that had an electronic folding button... such as the MR2 , with the touch of a button it will fold your mirrors, guess it's nice for parking so people won't bump or bend your mirrors, etc...

:shock: Your kidding ... right ?
These have to be one of the smallest , mis shaped mirrors I've ever had on a vehicle .
They're small , narrow and tapper smaller to the outside (where they should be biggest ) .

I have those retractable mirrors on my Rav4, i bought my rav4 from Japan a couple of months ago

Hansie : Do you have any pics of these ?

 

[hansie]

The mirrors are the same as all the other Rav4's. Here a picture(sorry not very clear) of the button. I don't really think the mirrors are small. The retractable mirrors were standard on my Rav4, same as key less entry.

I would love to be able to source a set of those mirrors... 8)
Of course would need the wiring harness with the switch as well...

Anyone have any connections to get a set ?

 

[ccaddy]

A pic of the actual mirrors would be cool 8)

 

[hansie]

Hope you can see it on this picture.

 

[ccaddy]

Ohh ... same as stock except with a power fold in feature ?

 

[hansie]

Yes they are the same as the stock ones

this one has powerfold?!? I want one!!! does it have heated mirrors too? If it does, I don't care how much it cost.. I want one.

 

[hansie]

No it doesn't , I live in the caribbean so i don't need heated mirrors

Is it possible to find out how much it cost? Even from dealer if they have or can get any? I really like the option of retracting the mirrors without folding them manually.

nl4jy I forgot where you are located... I didn't see your location or country flag on your profile...

If you are serious about it, I may have a source for used mirrors... I am in the process of obtaining a set myself... and if there is interest, I may be able to source some more.... 8)

Those retractable mirrors are standard on the Japanese models, If you look at www.mehran.co.jp you will see that all the rav4's have those mirrors
