Replacement Drivers Side Mirror

Post by ShaneyB » Thu Apr 07, 2022 9:00 am

Morning all, hope you're well?

Had somebody hit my drivers side wing mirror this morning and just drive off :thumbsdown:. The impact knocked the glass out (sill connected by the wiring and not cracked) which has gone back in place but the movement is now slow when tilting to the right. Also the clear glass strip for the indicators is broken slightly and will probably leak water.

Can I just buy the wing mirror housing itself or will I need to buy the complete mirror assembly?

Any advise appreciated.

Cheers
Shane

Count your self lucky the glass is still intact and reusable. Glass alone can cost around £420 depending on which one is fitted. The indicator lense, motor, cover are all available separately.
Just depends on what is fitted to your car originally

Turns out I can replace the clear 'glass' for the indicators for a measly £200.00.

That's through a specialist and not a steeler.
