Get out of the car and it looks like someone removed the entire driver side mirror and the casing around the passenger side mirror. No other damage to the car or the mirror mount area. Looks like whoever did it knew how to remove the mirror.

I am pretty upset, made the police report, insurance claim, and call into my service advisor... Is the resale market for the mirrors pretty hot?? I have no idea why someone would go through the trouble to do this in a large, fairly busy office parking garage...

There is a clk convertible that also parks in the garage that I looked at to see if it was bothered. It had the folding mirrors but I notices one of them was folding in and the other was bent backwards a bit. I am thinking they were trying to remove it (and my passenger side mirror) but were interupted and gave up.
