I think you are pretty much stuck with the factory mirrors. They do a good job. Every aftermarket mirror I have seen doesn't do worth a sh1t and looks out of place. :)

If it is any help to anyone wanting factory electric mirrors Golf Heaven quoted me 125 quid for 90 spec elec/heated mirrors for mine including the switch and wiring. sounds a bit to the high side for used parts but thats just me. I have the email still if anyone wants it. :)

Well I managed to pick up a set with loom for ?35, but thats cos I'm a lucky btard ;)  Considering the glass is ?40 for driver and ?35 for the passengers alone ?125 is a good price!
