Has anyone fitted these ? I notice they have one huge nut on the inside. I dont have any interior trim pieces for these,, any ideas ?

Does the bolt fit thru the hole? I've heard the JA series cars may need this opening enlarged. The nut should have come with the mirrors!! The plastic trim shows up on ebay every now and then. All this can be picked up from the US. Or find someone dismantling a JB/JD with original mirrors....or use the JB ones from your recent buy. I'm sure Greg has original mirrors on his.

The real problem you will have with the conquest mirrors is the passenger side (US driver's side) will not move enough to have decent side vision. You will need to play around and modify this!!

Darryl, you went to the USofA and that is all you brought back with you???

They mount the same as JB/D. Need to adjust the mirror angles to use them properly (beyond the normal range of operation).
The convex drivers mirror is probably illegal, but awesome at removing the B pillar blind spot. Just drive aware that objects are closer than they appear.

I have JA mirrors on the track car even though its a JB. Less wiring and friggin around with the JA mirrors for what I needed.

i have the US ones on my car.

you need to grind out the hole for the large nut and i have also used the covers that you get on a jb/jd with elec ones.

but the passenger side sucks cant see out of it.

and i cant see how i can make it work unless i pull the stock mirror glass off and space out a new glass!

when i get back my hard drive i will post some pictures.

but they do look cool!

I take it that the US mirror is manually adjusted but done from pushing on the glass. No levers & def non-electric...

what if you swapped the wb mirror+motor unit for a ja/jb mirror/motor unit and just used the wb housing?
