Cracked side mirroe

[Brad Goodman]

I figured I would ask here before I ring Toyota parts as I'm sure they will provide me with the most expensive answer...anyways:

The driver's side door mirror on my Camry is cracked. As they are power mirrors, will I need to get the whole unit replaced or can I just get the glass replaced?

Just the glass

If worst comes to worst a glazier will cut and fit a new piece for you

Just buy a mirror from the $2 shop and sticky tape it over the cracked mirror.
You won't be able to tell the difference!

Genius! Can't believe I haven't thought of that - definitely a better option than forking over $200 for a new unit.

Get the aftermarket mirrors, cost about 100 but well worth it as they are better quality.

Where are these available. My parts knowledge is crud and google isn't really helping.

I got mine off eBay, seems dodgy i know but mine was well worth the risk. Make sure they are from an eBay shop and have warranty like mine and you will be fine.
