    Question Miata Side Mirror options??

    Does anyone know if the NA mirror bolt holes are the same as the NB? Or if any other cars share the same bolt holes? I was told the 1st Gen RX7 Holes are the same?? Anyone have actually proof? Like as in photos, not he said / she said?

    Yes, they are the same. I'm using the APR GT3 mirrors on my NB that used to be on my NA.
    However, the mounting location on the door itself is different, for instance I had clear visibility of the whole mirror on my NA, on my NB a small part of it is blocked by the sail window's frame. It doesn't affect how well they work, just that there is some "interference", for lack of a better word. This should be only applicable to certain aftermarket mirrors.

    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    Also, how about Cappuccino Mirrors

    They are slightly smaller than the Miatas. (actually they like to swap for our NA mirrors for more visibility)
