Click on the ebay tab at the top and paste the auction number between the brackets then hit previw to see if it works before you post. Hit the quote button and you can see the code that makes it work.

Put the auction number between these {ebay} {/ebay}, for example {ebay}123456789{/ebay}.

For youtube it's very similer. Copy paste adress and put between (youtube) (/youtube) :)

I originally thought it was for a single mirror, at this price it is about the same as napoleons, but at the bottom of the aution it explains that the 30 bucks is for a pair of mirrors...so I got them, will post pics and review once I get them.

Where is the eBay tab?

Never mind - found it. You have to be in the process of posting and the tab is there under the Boardcode subject. That's cool - never noticed it before.

So I got the mirrors in today, and they actually seem to be pretty decent for made in china. I got these because they don't have the cheap stem to mirror rivet job like some of the other cheap mirrors on eBay tend to have, and the machining looks pretty good. As far as fit and finish goes they are perfectly acceptable for the 30 bucks I paid except for the chip in one mirror. The chip confirms that they are made from glass and not plastic, which is good, but I will have to send the one stem off for replacement, so I will see how their customer service is!

In the first pic you can see I have the chipped mirror taken out from the bar end portion (which fit just fine). One of the best parts of these mirrors is that the socket head bolt that you tighten on the side of the bar end to hold the mirror in place can be interchanged with the mirror allowing you to have 2 configurations, or take the mirrors off and use them as bar ends...

FYI, these mirrors are smaller than I thought, the diameter of the mirrors is 2.75"
