    I needed to replace my driver's side that got whacked a few weeks back so I had to get a pair - cost $US140 which currently is exactly $200 so I guess I'm after $100 for the left side - still in its original box.

    It's THM brand apparently, "Exclusive Club Sports Line Mirror".

    - Heated

    - Electric

    - Convex section for wide-angle view

    - Aluminium base

    Photos here on the car I'm currently selling (plug :)

    Currently primered, unpainted.

    Gave her a full polish & groom from Crystal on Wigan St yesterday, man she's sparkling like a thousand diamonds now..

    I'm trying not to put "Motorsport" or M-spec in here anywhere but she does have the motorsport stitching on the steering wheel... :)

    Wheres the other side of the story

    We did argue a bit about who should cover the higher-than-anticipated customs costs. In the end I did say start the pricing again from scratch, & I'll pay exactly what the shipping & customs duties were, and we'll adjust the amounts owed accordingly. This was at a point when it was clear not all the parts were going to arrive.

    As far as I know, yeah, the guy sold off the parts to his own profit. I even spotted an auction by him for an identical part shortly after we discussed the customs problems, which I queried him on but received no reply (on TM) or PM.

    I'm not sure what he'd claim is the other side of the story - possibly that I refused to pay the customs charges he asked for, and for his part he did offer to refund the amount for the parts he hadn't received yet, which was the point where I said well let's see how much the costs are for the thigns you have so far & we'll go from there. Also as stated above there were plenty of attempts to come to a compromise on the customs issue.

    From my understanding the biggest issue arose because the supplier elected to ship in multiple shipments, rather than one big one, as some parts were delayed/etc.. therefore the customs diversion that was supposed to take place never occurred. OK, fair enough, but since no parts were ever sent to me, and he has since profited on top from their sale, it's hard to imagine what his justification might be...

    I'd be interested to hear what you're on about, but I'd suggest in the first instance you paint us the picture without naming names etc.

    Basically go ahead and give us the background but leave out any incriminating details at this stage.

    OK?

    ok so basically I was piggy-backing on a shipment from the States; I sent money to a guy here who would ship the items to me after they arrived in the country. The two snags that occurred were:

    1) My guy then tried to claim customs & duty etc when his original combined "pitch" was based on contacts who would get things through incl. customs at the earlier-stated rate

    2) the shipper in the states wasn't quite on the ball either and had delays with shipping someo of the parts.

    Nevertheless, some parts arrived here and were later sold off by my trader here, and I have seen neither parts nor the money sent for them.

    It was a relatively substantial order too.. I didn't have any apprehensions as the guy is quite well-known here actually..

    Ive got one, whats the part number that you have on yours....there have been about 6 'upgrades' so there is a number of sensors that should work.

    It also depends on how many airbags you have on that side

    Does 65 77 8 369 024 sound right for a part number?

    This is a 97 model so as far as I know there's only the one.. course, having never blown them I've no idea to be honest.. heh

    Will have the muffler and tip off a 03 e39 M-Sport for sale within in the month. Highest bidder wins!

    I could be interested, I'm going to need a new exhaust once I get my rear M-tech bumper in. I've no idea what this would be worth though, how about bumping this thread when it's ready for sale?
