My X-Factor Folding Mirrors
« on: January 23, 2009, 07:56:58 PM »
The bad:
Took me two days to install. WHOLE days. 8am to 8pm. No breaks or lunches.  ;D

The good:
It will take you 1 day or less because I will answer all questions.  ;D

That was taken when I didn't have everything put back yet. My door panels and everything were still off. This was just to make sure everything was working.

Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you're going when you hit the wall.
Torque is how far you drag the wall with you.

I have these installed on mine as well.  You sure you didn't forget the soft plastic isolator??  Hope you put that in else the rain will see to your mirrors.
