I got a free pair of ebay mirrors from a friend, they came off of his '98 hatchback, they fit mine good but you're going to have to drill some extra holes and be precise when you drill them for proper fitment, here's mine:

You can see I used the original hole on the bottom right and had to drill a new one for the top bolt. Coincidentally, that bottom left bolt sat even right on the corner of that slot for the inside mirror cover, in order to use the mirror cover you just need to take a dremel and cut off the notch on the mirror cover that fits in there normally, and it will still fit in right.

I plan to sand mine and paint them, I don't like that stupid light or the fake CF, but I like the style.
