Chrome mirror caps

Suppose these are like Marmite,
but  i like em, these are the only ones in Stainless,  good advert on Ebay.

However,  if you do fancy them, although listed for the 1999 to 2006, they do not fit the facelift model.
The seller tried to tell me it was the paint thickness !!! there is about a 8 mm gap as you try to push it on, it then starts eating into the paint.
Seller has refunded and very sorry. I thought they were all the same, appears not,  i looked on real oem and a different part number is listed for the facelift.
