they don't have one listed for the elantra though.....
keep in mind that you're gonna lose your power mirror adjustment and the heated mirror features if you find ones that will fit.
personally, I LOVE the heated mirror!
if you want chrome you can get these (http://www.kspec.com/list.php?ac_id=72&ai_id=486) or maybe these (http://www.kspec.com/list.php?ac_id=72&ai_id=793)....
If you want black, just paint the stock mirrors.... or if you want CF, you could check into having covers made if they're not already available...

those chrome ones are nice, but too bad their just covers and there 50 bux when those are only 75 that Sledge picked out. I say c/f. i wanted some c/f ones real bad but their expensive. i cant tell if those are real carbon fiber but im guessing they arent. if they arent and you get them, i will personally chop your balls off!

I have not used my heated mirrors sence I moved to FL but they do have it for Elantra they just type-O'd the Hyundai as honda look a little closer.
I plan on calling the place tomarrow to find out if they are real carbon though.
and I like the styling of these more than the stock look.
they are not covers they are full mirrors.

you might want to check ebay, any look around at other cars to see which side mirrors will fit. I was searchin ebay, not lookin to buy just messin around, and theres a ton for civics and other rice burners. so if you can figure out which other cars will fit on an elantra, go for it and maybe you can get a good deal! i also like those more than stock, i hate the plastic piece on the stock mirrors.

Those are the same ones the APC Elantra used. I'm fairly sure they were never designed for the Elantra and they are designed for another car, but fit good enough, not perfect.
Also, I sent them an email telling them they had it listed as Honda and not Hyundai, so hopefully they'll change it. Stupid people. Oh, I'd never order from a place that doesn't know which car is which.

They seem really nice but a bit expensive unless that is the price for the pair.
One thing: Think about this really well because you will probably have to run a wire from the turn signals into the door, and i have read that in a ROYAL PITA if you want to do it inside the original cable conduit in the doors in http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2859&highlight=led+handles
If someone eventually gets these plese let us know how did it go.

ok just off the phone :phone: with street beat customs about these mirrors.
http://us.st7.yimg.com/store1.yimg.com/I/streetbeatcustoms_1833_22624078
they told me about a month and the price is for the set.
I would say nice deal.

I just did a quick search over here and found these M3 Mirrors
http://www.autojoy.com.au/product/img/ea/m3_mirror/m3_echrome.jpg
These are chrome plated, electric mirrors with an LED indicator built in
Now i think from what i can make out of the site it comes with a free bracket for mounting
There's no listing for the Elantra but there is a listing there for the Hyundai Coupe 97-99. Anyone know the shape of the coupes bracket?
If nothing alike i know JetSpeed over here makes custom ones up for any car but not sure on price
Only downfall to this whole affair is the price of the actual mirror itself
Priced at $360AUD ea ($284.14USD) they aint exactly cheap but these would be pick of M3 mirrors i would use if i was putting on my car to keep them electric

Aren't those mirrors for people who actually need aerodynamic ones. I don't suppose they'd be very useful for daily driving. Interesting though.

I would rather think about getting Korean XD mirror which folds by one touch button.
Well, it was $150 tho.

Those "cone shape" mirrors look ok but as Super said I think they wouldn't be large enough for daily driving.....JMO.
