  Presented here is inside mirror mounting arm with the mirror which came on it when we received it, and includes the mirror mount (chromed/slotted) screw and the wavy spring washer for tight adjustment of the mirror.  Part number cast-in backside of the stem is "4695162" which is correct for 1957 Cadillac 2-door coupe and probably for 1957 & 1958 Cadillac 2 and 4-door sedans (NOT for convertibles) (LIKELY NOT for large cars like ambulance or limos as most of those seem to have a longer mirror stem than the regular sedans).

  These are almost always listed by sellers who won't bother to list the part numbers from the backside.  So you always have to ask them what the part number is so you can match to your project.  So we collected quite a few of these over the past few years to try to learn just which fit which models as best we could determine.  These may well fit other GM cars than Cadillac (Chevrolet/Pontiac/Oldsmobile/Buick) but we are not sure of other applications than those Cadillacs we have on hand for direct comparison.  If your application is other than 1957 Cadillac Coupe, then check your application very carefully before bidding.
  Mirror stem has light pitting in the chrome overall, which should re-plate excellent for show car applications.  Often these mirrors have broken day/night switch.  This is type with plastic flip handle with day/night operation working smoothly.  The small white background area on the plastic day/night switch has worn off white paint.  NOTE: that the mirror glass has background hazing, not in excellent condition but the mirror casing is still very excellent condition.  Could use as-is or replace the glass.
  We have never determined just exactly which mirror was used on which years' models but these are all about the same size, do the same job and very difficult to determine any one year from another and can be used interchangeably anyway.  The mirror stems are very peculiar between years and models.
  E-Mail questions.  PayPal available and required by me from bid winner outside the U.S.A.  Winner pays $8.00 USPS Parcel (Media Mail) S&H and $1.00 Insurance within Continental U.S.A.  Outside the U.S. e-Mail with delivery address for shipping calculation.  Priority International (not Flat Rate) is the only international shipment available which allows us to Insure delivery.  We can sometimes ship internationally quite cheaper in US Postal 1st Class mail but they will not allow it to be insured.  If you allow the cheaper shipping, then you personally are liable for any loss or damage.  
  We only take returns for items delivered not as described in our listing.  We always try to ship multiple purchases together to save the bidder on shipping costs.  Oh, if you don't need and don't want the mirror/screw/wavy washer; then ask as I likely have another of these mirror stems separately which we may or could list.

2015 Audi A3 to star in Super Bowl XLVIII ad

Wed, 18 Dec 2013

The 2015 Audi A3 will be the star of Audi's 2014 Super Bowl ad, the seventh consecutive year that the automaker will be airing a commercial spot during the sporting event. You might have seen last year's "Prom" campaign by Audi (the video above) or the even more memorable "Vampire Party" from 2012, featuring the Audi S7. Another recent Audi Super Bowl ad that the Internet seemed to like was 2011's "Release the Hounds" spot for the Audi A8, mocking old luxury...at Mercedes-Benz's expense, we might add.
