Wing mirror joy

[hanny1973]

Hi all - this was the lovely site when I woke up this morning. Does anyone know whether this can be fixed? Can I buy a replacement bracket?!

The wing mirror itself looks intact.

What car might be helpful?

Good point. 2014 Golf R.

Speak to TPS, they'll know if the part is available on it's own or just as a complete unit?

Otherwise you're looking at a breakers, but given it's so new I think you'll struggle.

were other motors done in your street? Or was this simply an accident. Given the automatic power folding mirrors i'm guessing deliberate vandalism.

Mine was the only car....it looks way too deliberate for it to be an accident.

The bracket in the only thing that’s damaged but I have a feeling it’s going to be the whole unit. Maybe FleaBay?

You should be able to buy the base, which I think includes the motor, you can the swap, over the case, and glass. If it’s anything like our Audi A3, the window surround has to come out, it’s not a quick fix.

This is why the punishment should match the crime. Public flogging.

What a massive prick to do this and cost someone so much time and money.

Soz op.
