depends if they are mk3 polo or mk2 golf (?) specific!

if they are universal fitment then you'll need a base plate and i no that halfords don't do them! so you may need to buy a universal plate an make it fit!

however, if its the mirrors i think it is, which are polo specific, i think they will either screw on, or they may need to be stuck on with some sort of adheisive!

hope that helps you out!

Did you get a baseplate with the mirrors or not?
I bought a mk3 baseplate with mirrors to fit my mk2 and tbh the baseplate was a s**t fit to both the mirror and the car.
You can use foamboard type stuff as a baseplate by cutting it to size and then drilling through it and screwing it all together.
