Needing to check a Brake on the car set about removing the wheels. Parked close to my fence in front of my garage, jacked the car up in the usual way. Then heard a soft sounding "crack" like plastic being snapped. That's exactly what happened. My car then had a droopy passenger door mirror... frown

Had I parked the car four inches either way the mirror would not have been aligned to the concrete fence posts holding the wooden fence panels. Sod' Law in full flight there. rolleyes

Got a good Mirror from a donor car in a local breaker yard car. In bright Red.. Flame? So today set about rectifying that Sod's Law episode. Attached images show how... delighted with final result.

Sorted.











Good job it was not my other ZT 1.8t, that has powerfolds..
