Fred   they sound like they are original FJ mirrors but rectangular. Fred does this mean the CBR mirrors are a better option or can you adjust the mirror so you can see less of your shoulders and arms. Do the mirror heads have Adjustments so you can lock the position of the head in or is it tight enough that it is hard to move. I'm considering buying some but am hoping you can give us some more details on if its worth while. does this mean the CBR mirrors are a better option or can you adjust the mirror so you can see less of your shoulders and arms. .

I can not speak of personal experience on the CBR mirrors. From the members on here that have done the CBR mirror mod, everyone has positive input. Mainly a better view (dramatically less view of your elbows), and aesthetically better looking than the stock FJ mirrors.

The mirrors that I have are as good looking and IMO better looking than the CBR mirrors. The down side is.... you get alot of your elbow to view, even more so than the stock mirrors.

IMO, the CBR mirrors are a better option, they look good, give a good view and a relative easy mod. My mirrors look really slick but the view sucks when compared to the CBR mirrors..
