Mikael,

Thanks for the info! I'll keep you posted on the progress wit hooking up the XJS mirror.

Phil,

I'll thry to take a photo of it this week. It is a chrome unit, only on the drivers side. I had to grind back the top half of the foot since it was too round for a proper fit. It was a half hour job and you can still use the original plastic gasket once you're done.
It is a little larger than a Vitaloni unit but not so that it looks out of place on a deauville.
For me it blends in well with all the other chrome and the serie 1 chrome bumpers that it have.

For your info also. A few years back I came across a Swiss Longchamp GTS in pretty much your grey colour that had Porsche 924/944 mirrors fitted. The square colour coded ones which were electric and heated as well. It had a center console mounted control unit which was not a porsche unit for shure.
I had a 924 turbo back then and it seemed that, after comparing, to me that the mounting plates had very little or even no modifications done to it. Looked very good and blended in very nice with the square look of a GTS.
The vendor was very persitend in saying that it was an original factory option. Who knows?
Maybe Wellis can shed some light on this?
