well there was a post a while back about these. me, scottparker and someone else where going to be making them, i personaly havent got very far but will be starting it up again soon, not sure about the other guys.

but yes you will have to make them your-self.

only bit i aint sure about is the covers, on how to make them look like the originals, but basically the actual mirror, you just have to find a way to cut the glass and the rest. etc etc

well i had a look at ste's and decided you'd need to cut an inch off both ends the glass cutting would be easy, iv got a glass cutter, but i thing theres alot more to this than meets the eye!!! there's gotta be some info on it

lol quality mate. to be honest all i done was taken the covers off and draw a few lines on it where i wanted to cut it.

never thought of pm'ing him though.
