Mirror Stolen

Hello Folks,

NYC got me. Both my mirrors were stolen, I am trying to see what I need to replace. It looks like the wire in the lower left was cut? Any idea what was there? I want to just order the glass, but not sure if I need more parts.

Ouch!
Hmm... if they had to cut a wire to remove the mirror, I suspect it may be heated glass...so probably a lot more complicated than just replacing glass, unfortunately.

So possibly full housing, not just the glass, just for that one "cut" piece? Thank you

I'm sorry. I don't really know.
I would ask a dealer, if i were you. They would most likely give you a quote and hopefully part number(s).

I've seen so many cases where MB makes one buy a whole "unit" even if it's just some minor component broken.
I wish you luck!

Maybe they needed to reflect . Joking aside, looks like the glass can be ordered standalone. The cut wire can probably be soldered. You can find the parts and diagrams on mbparts.mbusa.com for example. Here's a link to the driver's side glass. Not cheap, which explains why they get stolen.

Thank you, at this point, I may go to the dealer, at least all will be 100% correct. Mirrors alone are approaching my deductible. It looks like parts 70 or 90/200 was removed.

FYI: That part (167-810-33-01) sells for $593 at mbpartsource.com. Lists for a little over 1k.

448 Euros excluding tariffs

Still quite expensive, even for a Mercedes mirror glass (heated, dimmed etc.). Wonder who purchases a stolen mirror glass, an EQS owner would not steal it for his own car.

Yeah, it so stupid! It's not like there are a bunch of EQS in the City.

Mirrors are about 8-1k outside of BMW, but worried about the cut cable or whatever it is. It's the cut cord that concerns me

They have side mirror bags that I can put on, it's kevlar and cable lock to close. I would hope if they try to remove the whole assembly the alarm would alert me

They go up for sale on Ebay. Looks like $200-$300 there. However, with the wire damage and approaching deductible level territory, I'd just get it done correctly at the dealer rather than buy the part back from the guys who stole it from you. One time in NYC, my daughter's iPhone got stolen off her tray at a pizza place when she was momentarily distracted. I watched her phone transit to the Bronx, where it finally stopped moving. I texted and asked if I could buy it back, but the thief never responded.

Definitely not buying back. I need to speak with dealers-turnaround times may long. Mirrors are 784, but as noted, the wire damage requires more work and that's/those are not a piece you can just buy.

Such an odd thing to steal since the resale market would be so small. They would have to list on ebay to get any hits.

Sorry you have to deal with this.

I agree, very small market for this car, in general, in my market. Almost feels like someone put in a custom order.

Thanks for your sympathies.

Edit: I think that it is actually the dimming feature that drives up the price. My left (drivers, dimming) mirror is multiples the price of my right (passenger, non dimming). I thnk that both are heated.

No, not a small market at all. Check the vehicle fitment at the mbparts link I posted above. Same mirrors go on like 93 models and model years.

Yes, saw that too. Sadly and maddeningly, the guy has probably already sold them, boxed them, and they are one their way to an unsuspecting owner.

I didn't even think of shared parts. Of course. Thanks for chiming in.

Sorry this happened to you. The world is going to the pits with these type of people. Sometimes, I wonder what type of environment were these people raised in to get them to this point of doing something like this? I hope you get your car fix in a speedy, and I hope it does not happen again.

@MB37 The world, and nature in general, has always been full of these types of people. I would speculate (no offense intended) that you may have been nurtured in a somewhat privileged environment. Poverty and hunger forces people to do bad things to survive. Drug addiction leads to a whole different level of crime.

It is amazing that we put our luxury cars right out in the open, hoping that others will respect and treat it as something other than a potential source of income. Yes, it is sad.
