Question Passenger Wing Mirror Broken

Hi All,

I broke my wing mirror (glass only)...the mirror came off (still attached via cable) but I have clipped it back on to the car. Needs replacing. Spoke to dealers who want £80 for the mirror.

Seen this on Ebay...anyone else ever used something like this or does it have to be a mirror supplied by dealer?

I've used a ebay mirror on a astra I used to have, worked fine and I couldn't tell the difference from the original.

that is just a basic replacement mirror, gotta make sure your mirror wasn't dimmed...if it was this mirror is not for you, thats not an auto dimmed mirror..(that mirror you're showing right now cost only $60 at the dealer, the dimmed mirror cost $300+)

Mine is the non dimmed mirror. Bough this one off ebay and its bang on perfect. has the heated elements and even tried it the other day when it was frosty and sure enough it warms up (probably not as much as the oem one) but for 15 odd quid its a bargain
