You can buy new mirrors off ebay pretty cheap, will be a bit more expensive if they are electric and colour coded.

Pull the small triangle of trim off on the inside of the door behind the mirror plate then 3 screws to undo.

Hope that helps

Vw dealer just quoted Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£150 for fitting + spray.
I would like to fit myself but the 4 pin connector that connects to the mirror broke too so not sure how i would get round that!
I will have a butch on ebay.
Thanks again.
