    Is this a European Prius?
    Those rear view mirrors with the turn signals look sharp.

    I know the Japanese have that blue, and the Mirror Turn Indicators, not sure about Europe.

    Also note the Side Reflector just below the Side Mirror in front of the Front Door.

    My guess is it's a home market model.

    Also notice the steering wheel. Pretty much places it in either part of former English empire or Japan. I would guess Japan as well.

    :p :wave: :clap: Tempus is correct these photos were taken from Japan websites the car is a homemarket, mirrors and rear spoiler I believe to be Toyota aftermarket. If I run across the page again I'll repost. :computer: :wave:

    I really like those side mirrors! I think that would be an awesome safety mod.

    Man, this is going to require a trip to Tokoyo huh? Guess I better start gathering up my airmiles.

    I have been in touch with the folks at Japanparts.com they can get the mirrors and other accessories. Here is what they quoted me.

    Thank you for your inquiry and sorry for the delay in replying.
    And please remember, these items are for JDM.
    Here is a quotation for you.

    *side turn lamp with door mirror: 27,900JPY (253.176 USD)
    *fender lamp pole: 18,900JPY (171.506 USD)
    The site I used for currency conversion is http://www.xe.com/ucc/
    *Shipping to USA via EMS: 6800JPY
    (It'll take about 10-15days(business day) to get to USA
    since we received your payment.)
    ++++ if your payment is by a credit card.++++
    *Mail Order Card Sale(5%) by C.C.Company:2,821JPY

    Here is the link to the Toyota Japan site that you can find all kinds of goodies, english version. http://www.toyota.co.jp/Showroom/All_toyot...u/frame/op.html

    Also in Japan another option is mirrors that fold back when you lock all 4 doors from the outside. Not sure if they come with turn signals.

    I am currently working on a USA supplier for mirror mounted turn signals.

    I wonder if the wiring is already in place and you simply have to plug the power in for the side mirrors? I checked out the Japanese website that was supposed to have an English translation but it was still in native format. If I knew installation was a snap, without rewiring I might consider ordering these.

    Yikes, sorry bout that previous post claiming the japanese link didn't work. I realized that my google pop up blocker was preventing the window from loading. I wonder if we can encourage Toyota Town in Canadia to order a mass quantity of these specialty add-ons at a discount and then resell them...hmm.

    Man, if I had that color on my Prius, it would almost match my Nassau Blue 'vette. :)
