Which brand of body-colored mirror inserts would you recommend for my 07? I have Vista Blue. I was also wondering about the long-term durability of the adhesive used to stick to the plastic covers. How should I prep the plastic covers? Are there any problems with these?

I bought the ones from AM for my Vista Blue '06. The 3M adhesive is strong enough to last for a long time. Yes, you need to prep them with a light sanding and some adhesion promotor. Also, don't just use the 3M adhesive tape in strips across the back, go all around the edge, too.

No sandinG needed on mine. That stuff might as well have been glue.
