Smile LHS Rear view mirror wanted for Fairmont 99 AU- Confused

Hey guys,

Ive been looking thinking of buying a LHS mirror for my Ford Fairmont 99 AU. I have read that only mirrors with climate contraol will fit the fairmont..Is this true? Is there a way that I can fit a normal ford falcon LHS mirror..Any suggestions will be much appreciated..New member

Yeah the ambient sensor should be hidden up under the front bumper so should be right.
is that including the postage? id say thats not bad if your after one in a hurry otherwise im sure a wrecker would prob only charge bout $20 if you can find the side your after which is never the case!

Well do you have a mirror currently? If no then yes, if yes then no. Simple.
