Exclamation Hangar 111 multivex mirrors

Guys... have anyone of you tried the Hangar 111 multives mirrors before? If so, do you guys just stick it on your existing mirror or you remove the existing mirror and fix the multives mirror onto the black panel on the side mirror?

Pls do help me

They stick on over the existing mirrors. If you want a cleaner finish, then you can remove the double sided tape beforehand and use silicone caulk to attach them.

You can't really remove the old mirrors and replace with the multivex ones because they are convex and won't fit flush in the existing mirror housing.

Edit:
Ace10 sent me a link to this post outlining how to install them with less protruding edges by removing the old mirrors: Multivex Mirror review

I glued the mirror on with caulk. Then once it cured, I used black caulk around the outside. It is a pretty clean install. The mirror is neat (I have only the right side, dropped the left one before I could install it...) It definitely takes a bit of getting used to. If there was one convenience thing I would change on the Elise... electric folding and adjusting mirrors... I would give up power windows for that!
