Replacing smashed mirror

[cuffy]

I stone has flicked up and smashed my right hand side mirror.

Is it possible to replace the actual mirror? or do I have to buy the whole side mirror part?



Thanks

have th sme problm did youfind out how to remove the glass component, does it simply pop out if you pull from both sides?

To renew mirror glass:

1 Adjust the mirror to the inner/uppermost position.

2 Insert a flat bladed screwdriver into the opening and carefully disengage the clip
retaining the mirror glass to the base plate.

3 Move the glass in a circular motion to disengage the remaining clips and withdraw the glass from the plate.

Installation is a reversal of the removal procedure with attention to the following points.

1 Place the mirror to the base plate, ensuring that the vibration damper spring correctly
engages the groove in the mirror housing.

2 Carefully, but firmly press the mirror towards the base plate until the retaining clips are
all engaged.

3 Check the operation of the mirror.


These instructions are from my Gregory's manual, I strongly recommend purchasing one for around $40. It will come in handy many times and save you money doing your own repairs.

if you live in melbourne, holmart sell them cheaper then $40 i think from memory there were around the $15 mark.

where does the "vibration damper spring" aka "clip retaining the mirror glass" go on the mirror housing?

If no-one replies before tomorrow I will take a pic for you. I have a few spare mirrors.
