Is the glass busted or are you after the glass and holder (not the painted mirror assembly)? If you just want the glass Halfrauds should have them in stock it's a replacement for a Citroen CX25 IIRC.

Citroen AX I think. Or as I prefer also fitted to the Jaguar XK220.

Get a quote first from your favourite TVR dealership for a laugh. Then compare with Halfwits prices.

And I know how much Halfrauds pay for them

Cos the company I work for makes them.

Citroen dealer is probably the cheapest, don't forget to check that the new glass has the heating element in it

On mine the heating element was a stick on pad that stuck to the mirror...

Good point Ben, Halfrauds type won't have it, it's just a plain glass that sticks over the broken one.

If it is the glass that's broken, and you can take out the glass and holder assembly from the mirror housing.
If you put it in the freezer for a couple of hours you should be able to remove the broken bits of glass as the sticky Heater pad loses a lot of it's stick when it gets VERY cold. The sticky on the heater should return when the heater pad gets up to room temperature.

Hope that makes sense?
