HELP. Mirror stolen last night
Just bought an 09 C300 literally two weeks ago. Haven't even made a payment yet and last night the glass to my driver side mirror was stolen. I've been looking around online and calling around but I can't find anything better than about $400. 
I have a $500 deductible for my comprehensive coverage so thats not an option either.
Have any of you had a similar experience and found the parts for cheaper. Any help would be very much appreciated.

My neighbor was in an accident with his C350 a few years back where he needed a new pass door and mirror. Turned out they replaced the door and just the glass inside the mirror housing, which was broke. But it too kept falling out. So maybe it's not that someone stole the glass, maybe the clips are broken and it fell out. Check the rear plate in the housing before buying another replacement glass/mirror for it. If that's broke as well, you may need the whole mirror housing as well.

However, the driver side glass is auto-dimming. The other cheaper glass probably doesn't retain that function... So the ~$400 might be the auto-diming glass?

I think the glass with the board? I found the glass alone on ebay for $26 and I also found a local guy that said if he had even broken glass and the board he could do the labor for $47.
I guess I'm looking for broken or not glass with board.
Although I'm really bummed I am happy that the thief was nice enough not to destroy the entire housing.
