wing mirror stem how much???
Discussion
If you do a search for 'mirror' it's been covered quite a bit, with some detailed instructions on how to do it, I did one, then a week later the other side went as well, I think a TVR dealer is the best place to get them from TMS usually have them in stock, although I may have cleaned them out
about £8.00 delivered to your door
good luck it's not the easiest job but it's not imposible!

Complete mirror from Citroen is £92 but doesn't have the hole (or wiring) for the door release so you still need the £8 bit from TVR. And it'll need painting. If you need the mirror unit you may get one from a TVR breakers, maybe even the right colour
Raceboy,
You've obviously done a few, I'm refitting mine in the next couple of days, don't suppose you can remember what wires go to what on the mirror motors can you
three wires to the mirror, three completely different colour on the loom, I know it wouldn't take long with trial and error but I'm a bit lazy

Mine had a 5 way multi-plug, but this would not go through the hole in the mirror, so all 5 wires were cut, but 1st label them up, in my case black 1-3, white, and brown, then join them back together at the end using bullet connectors.
Then dismantle again because all you can see is ground in the mirror, repeat again, this time nothing but sky, eventually you'll get it about right

Raceboy,
For future reference, the plug comes apart. It's a bit difficult to explain but I'll have a go.
The 5 way multi plug has (obviously) 5 pins (two at the top three at the bottom) B
etween the two sets there is a bit of plastic (that goes between the moulded plastic connector (the bit that won't got through the hole for the mirror))
This bit can be pulled out (needle nose pliers) then the individual wires can be pulled out and fed through the hole for the mirror separately.
My problem is what order to re-fit them to the connector
Anyway, that might save you soldering too much in future

Had a look at the plug, gave it a bit of a tug, but it looked like I would pull the bare wires out the contacts which would have been a nightmare, I surpose it's one of those 'knowing how hard to pull' type jobs, but a TVR dealer also told me the only way to do it was to cut the wires 

hang on here wheener boys, this is my thread dont think you can come on in here and decide that your now in charge of this thread. get your bags go back out and try again!!!!! You and your 5 pin plugs.......if it was up to you boys we would be talking about split washers and hex nuts all afternoon.

Feel free to ignore everything we've said and then repost when you need to rewire your mirror, you're going to need to do exactly what we've been talking about when you re-fit it.
Or you could be helpfull and note the colour order of the wires on the multi plug when you dismantle it. That would help all of us
Or you could just leave it with your dealer for a few days and pick up the £loads tab
Tell me more of these hex nuts
