Unhappy Help please!

Somebody tried to steel my passanger side mirror and broke it. Maybe was in a rush or somebody saw him. He broke only the mirror. Could anybody tell me where can I get a replacement?
Just the mirror.


Thanks, Jaime

Two guys stole both my mirrors last month. Cost over $1500 to replace them both.

Unfortunately, you can not replace just the mirror. This happened to my sister at UCLA. The whole unit has to be replaced.

Cut a template and take it to a glas/mirror shop and ask them to cut you a mirror for you car. They'll know what kind of adhesive will be best. You might have to tape the mirror while the glue is setting/hardening.

That should be a $20 fix, before you spend $750.- to replace the whole unit!!!

I'll let everyone else explain why this might not be a good idea, but keep in mind you'll be losing features like mirror defrost....

Defrost

Karl, I must agree with you!! Down here in SoFlo, we don't need any defrosting. I dont know where mine is either. I guess that's one of the many stupid xtra's they shoved down our throats when we got the car!!

True.

My girlfriend likes the heated seat feature occasionally here in S. Florida, probably because of my shortcoming. haha

I would like the massage feature as in the CL & S class option-gooddy-bag.

Just my .02 cents.

Good Luck
