Tom_C Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Hey there,I know the wing mirrors are different sizes already for passenger and drivers side. My drivers side took a battering and got hit, looking at replacing it... Now if I was to buy a drivers side "stubby" mirror, are they the same size as the standard passenger side mirror, or would I have to buy a pair of "stubby" mirrors. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattz341 Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Or go on German eBay and buy a passenger side mirror, that way you can have the same sizes for both sides! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosaSDI Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 I've just replaced mine on the gti after taking a wack, its around 170 from vw with a glass if you need a drivers stubby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stator Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Maybe it depends on year then? My 2k1 S has the larger driver's mirror Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I think early ones came with double stubbies. A lot of people fit them so even if yours has them, it might not have had them from the factory. They are the same size as the passenger mirror - a stubby drivers mirror is usually a European passenger mirror. Check out german ebay.

Mattz341 Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Could you go the other way and fit a European drivers side and get two big ones? It sounds logical and like it should work, just wondering whether it does! As I'd rather that then two small ones tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Yes you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
