O/S/F door mirror
« on: 26 December 2010, 22:03 »
Any ideas as to where i can get a door mirror for the car as the other 'arf decided to move the wheelie bin with it as she reversed of the drive. :evil:
The car has the electric/heated mirror. Its also a 2000 model. Not bothered about the colour as the MOT is due at the end of the year, so need to replace ASAP.
Have checked fleabay but prices seem a bit pricey :cry:
Any help much appreciated.

Was thinking scrappies, would a MK3 unit fit, if I cant get a Mk4 one?
How difficult a job to do?
I do have the "bible" :laugh: :laugh:
Any harder than replacing drivers door window regulator? Which took me about an hour or so to do.
The casing is cracked and a piece of the casing has disappeared, and the glass is cracked in about 4 places.However the actual base plate is not damaged.
Fleabay shop prices are getting ridiculous, even 2nd hand ones peoples are wanting at least
 £25+£10 p&p
so you are looking at around £35-£40 for a second hand unit :shocked:

should be much "MUCH" easier that the window regulator!
