Picked up my S3 a couple weeks ago and instantly fell in love, The only problem I have is the Mirrors. So in place of the stock ones I've Been considering either the Napoleon AP-104 or the CRG Hindsight Bar-End Mirrors and would like to know if anyone has suggestions regarding these two mirrors or any other brands.

Thanks

It really comes down to which style you prefer and how much you want to spend. I installed Ken Sean's for $35/set and find the visibility markedly improved. Check them out on my pic.

aikojo,

Search the forum for 'Napoleon' and 'CRG" you'll find a lot of good info. Of the two, I prefer the look of the CRG's...but just my personal taste.

at first the crgs seemed little but they are convex-lane splitting might be a problem unless you quickly pull them in-way better than stock

I have the CRG's, and they are well made, look great, and don't stick out enough to hit when lane splitting. Don't know about the nappys.

I use the Napoleon mirrors. They are not the prettiest on the market, but they work well.

I'll second that vote on the CRG's, plus they give a very clear image without any vibration distortion.
