A car hater found some fun in tearing off my left rear mirror holder. Can someone guide me on how the fix this or point me where to buy a new one.
I'm (or was) the happy owner of a beautiful,green '94 V8S.

2 options:-
1 - - Call Bell Hill garage breakers (number from Sprint). They had one about 6 weeks ago for about £85 +VAT.

2 - - Go through your local 'Euro Car Parts' factor. They can still get them brand new but unpainted from Citroen UK and less the heated glass. If the glass is smashed, Halfrauds can get from Summit UK for about £6...but does not have the glued on heating element.

I did the latter. Euro got the complete mirror case for about £75, and took about 3 days to send it to my local branch.

Many thanks, Nick.
As I'm living in Belgium, the first option is difficult to track.
Found second option on internet. Do you mean the mirror is from Citroen? What model? Might be possible to find it over here.

Many thanks, WG.
The site is indeed down. Do you have a phone number or any other link to get in touch with them?

DD,
Yes the mirror assembly is from a Citroen CX.
They were fitted to the Jag XJ 220 and to the Lotus Esprit as well.
Apparently they were the most aerodynamic mirrors ever designed (useful? trivia).
