Looking for 997 Mirrors!!!

Does anyone know where I can buy a used set of 997 mirrors? I am looking for a complete set to replace my 996 mirrors.

I checked with Mckenna Porsche to see if they would fit. They informed me that with a few mods they would fit.

What mods are needed for the mirrors to fit? Modding to the mirrors or car itself? Thanks

if it was that easy a lot of us would have done it already.... even look at the ppl who converted their 996 to 997 bodies and left the mirrors 996.. its cuz it does not work..

Thanks for your info. I have no idea as to why the dealer informed me that they would fit. I have a 2004 996 Turbo Cab X50 and would love to change out my mirrors. I will recheck with them and keep you guys posted.

For some reason the link will not work for me? Are those aftermarket mirrors that resemble 997 style?

I agree. They don't look the same.
