I got a set of these last year as well. I have not installed yet, although I opened the box last night and noticed that they did not come with the mounting bolt.
I got them from vwantigo.net - I checked their site this morning and they are not on there anymore. Looks like Bus Depot still has them though. |
The mirrors that Bus Depot is selling as Vanagon Mirrors are not the same as the Brazilian T2 mirrors these days. They could likely be made to work fine though, but would require some drilling and bending of their universal mounting flange. I can't get the Bus Depot search engine to work correctly at present though. |

I just placed an order for a few and if they work, I am happy to send you two for cost plus USPS shipping. They should be here next week.
