It would only be the driver's side that would need to be folded back because of my parking situation at work. I just need to know how adjustable the mirror is at the stem ... and whether it can be moved so that the mirror runs parallel to the window. In other words, can you grab the mirror and pull it toward the car like you can with the stock mirrors?

They are meant to be set and left in that position. To move them, you should loosen them first which is not difficult but more time consuming than necessary for just convince.

Can these mirrors be easily folded back ... say when you're in a tight parking spot? I realize that you would have to re-set/re-adjust them afterwards, but would like to know whether it's even possible to fold them back. Thanks!

Dont get them if you need this option... but they dont stick out as far as the stock mirrors I believe they have a convex mirror so you get more visually for the blind spots but they are tiny compared to the truck mirrors that come on the car.

OK, thanks ... that helps!

Joining the club (soon)!

Placed my order for a set of TCA-F mirrors [with the locking/lockable base and the blue lens] off of rhdjapan!

Can't wait!

You're going to love them, I couldn't go back to my stock mirrors.

This looks like one of those times where I just have to squint really hard and hit "buy".
Most times I've done that I realized I should have done it sooner. The forward blind spots on my little car are dangerous

One of the best mods I did. Not only does it solve the forward blind spot and the rear blind spot with the OEM mirrors but they look 100 times better. Truck mirrors need to go!

Same here! If I could only do one mod to my car, it would be the TCA mirrors. The $500 price tag was hard to get past at first but I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I could never go back to the stock mirrors now, they really make that big of a difference.

I'm hoping I found a temporary solution to my delayed CS purchase. Texas only requires one rearward facing mirror to pass inspection. So I just removed both sideview mirrors. We'll see how the inspection goes as soon as I get her roadworthy again. The law says "reasonable view of the rear" :eekdance:

$599 + shipping for the TC-F, TC-R, blue lens...

Quick question for you guys (while I wait for my mirrors...almost time!):

Have you applied some sort of spray (like an anti-fog) on the lenses to minimize the issue during the colder months?

I'm in the Los Angeles area, so I luckily won't have to deal with severe cold, but I was just wondering (more so on the passenger side...I can quickly grab one of my Starbucks-sourced napkins for my side, but not so much on the passenger side).

Thanks in advance for your input!
