I had a thread about this some time ago. It's great to see that someone actually went and did it. Maybe HandA would be interested in checking this out for us. I'll send them a link to this thread and see if they answer.
Here's what I sent them:

"Hi, I'm a member of the S2000 online forum (S2Ki.com) to which
you are a sponsor. I have attached a link to a thread that is
currently generating some interest in the N. American community.

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthread.php?...&threadid=65754

Some of us are interested in getting the "convex" left side mirror that the UK, Australian and Japanese cars have. Would you be able to get these mirrors and sell them to those of us who are interested? And at what price. If you are able, could you please respond to that thread directly? If not, then just reply to this email and I'll post it on the forum. Thanks. (xviper)"

Here is Trevor's response:
"Unfortunately, we only have access to US market parts.

-Trevor"


To bad he can't help us but for those who have said that they can't get a hold of HandA in the past. Take a look at the time lapse from my enquiry to their response. Now, that is fast!

Muz, is there anything you can do for us? Would be willing to look into getting these from your local dealer and "middleman" these to us? I would fully expect you to have a "markup" to make it worth your while and if the total cost were not too high, I'd be interested.

I've got a bunch of colleagues in the UK who make a trip to Chicago on a semi-regular basis... I may be able to get a few mirrors stateside, if the pricing is acceptable. I should find out next week, hopefully.

Just out of curiosity, and without any warranty or guarantee that this will happen, who would be interested, and at what price? If you are serious, send me an e-mail. If it ends up to be a dozen people, it may be feasible. If it's five dozen, it might be a number too big for me.

Ok. I called him and it seems he can get most bolt-on accessories as he has some Japan based contacts.

Great idea, so if I have a right hand drive car, I have to order a convex left hand drive mirror. Well done:thumbup :
