  • Replacement door mirrors...

    Hi anyone know where I can get a pair of replacement wing mirrors??

    Thx

    Mine have been vandalised, twice, over the years. Both times I have been unable to find any second hand and bought them at significant cost from BMW. Both times, Dave has then posted up adverts shortly after!......

    So, my advice would be to buy them from BMW but keep the receipt so that you can return them when Dave finds some in the darkest recesses of eBay!

        I have a pair and they are new but I think they are LHD (apparently they are different). I'll check and let you know

              Sorry LHD and yes they are different as the mirrors are asymetric, i.e. the angle of the passenger side mirror is greater

                Can't you just swap them over ;-)

                  As Seca says, can't you just use a LHD set and swap out the glass?

                  I've had replacement glass from these people before but for other cars, heated as well, and have had no problems:

                    Swapping the glass wont help to convert LHD to RHD, what's actually wrong with the current mirrors?

                      Not swap the glass but swap the mirror base and lhd will become rhd;)
                      But actually the inner armature (if it is cracked) could be welded... i had welded mine before

                        Hi started to bubble on one mirror at the base/mount which I assume is rust on the mirror so want to replace before it spreads...
