2012 Mirror Caps on a 2010?

darkrom · 09-13-2014, 11:42 AM

Will the 2012 mirror caps fit 2010 mirrors? I know someone selling CF caps but I'm trying to verify that they are different. I don't know which years they made the changes. Thanks!

Yes, they'll fit since both with be the "dumbo" style. The 2008-2009 ones are much thinner. If you're not convinced, take a look at one of those, then look at yours and it should be pretty clear as it's not a subtle difference, so you'll know in 2 seconds.

I hesitate to throw this out there since I'm not 100% certain, but I thought there were two different types of dumbo mirrors.

Nope... "is" models came with black caps instead of body-coloured... Still the same shape as the 2010+ LCI Dumbo Ears though...
