u could always get a helms manual. they tell u how to take them off and put them back on. should be the same because of the mk1 adapters u should have.
where did you get them by the way?

 

[randy mk1]

i got them off ebay. got it all sorted now. was really simple. i called them up and they wer really really helpful. you can buy them off www.2xcite.co.uk also, and the same price. they look good, but the mirrors are a bit small, so not the most practical! cant decide whether to colour code them. hmmmm....

 

[punto_boy99]

cool. you got any pics of them fitted?

 

[randy mk1]

urm not yet. will put some up soon tho. dnt have a dig. camera atm n i cant find the cable for my fone. will be up soon tho!

 

[punto_boy99]

Just got some myself and put them on today. Looks meaty

haha awesome. wot u think? u colour coding them? i just fitted a sports exhaust system and now im looking at getting hold of some nice feet for my punto. also eventually a bodykit..but thts the expensive one.... may take a while as im a student!!

 

[punto_boy99]

they are niiiice. i bought them standard black and seeing as though my puntos black i have no need to change the colour. which is fine by me. im looking to buy a new, bigger backbox for my exhaust. so thats my next big buy.

haha sweet. rly want a bodykit but i dnt trust the ones off ebay. i want to find some1 who is getting rid of one. but another problem is mine is a 5dr. so sideskirts will b annoying to do/get. u no ne1 sellling a bodykit?

 

[punto_boy99]

yeh i had a 5dr and i had real trouble trying to find side skirts so i gave up and got a three door. the bonus was, it alredi had a bodykit on it.
there are a few sites that do sell them, but quite limited choices.

 

[randy mk1]

theres no way im getting rid of my 5dr!!! shes my beauty. plus seeing as im one of the few of my mates who have a five door, i feel a bit unique. plus i dnt have to get out everytime some1 else gets in the car. lol

 

[punto_boy99]

true. my old five door was a beaut. but she was falling apart. piece of junk. :bang: made me nuts! lol.

personally i wouldnt fit M3 mirrors on a punto but each to their own really, if i was to get aftermarket mirrors the DTM ones suit the punto nicely and arnt over the top looking.,

 

[punto_boy99]

these arent reli OTT looking. kinda needed new ones anyway. so thought, might as well. and they look reli good.

 

[randy mk1]

dude at least with these m3 mirrors we can see something other than our own reflection, and they dont make our puntos looks like they have little piggy ears lol.... but as i guess a motto on this forum... each to their own.

...but the m3s are not ott.

btw puntoboy... ive decided to keep mine black as im picking up some black alloys off dave the trike 2moro... will be TIGHT lol.
