Hello all,

Looking for a replacement o/side mirror (the whole thing) for a 2015 Audi Q5.
Can anyone recommend somewhere cheaper then the main stealers please?
(will be having a look on eBay too on the off chance).

Cheers

The offside ones are of course the ones that get clonked the most, so very hard to find. Also wing mirrors are something that Audi tend to change details on between facelift models so you will be very lucky to find an exact replacement on the cheap.

I ended up buying the parts through a main stealer for an outrageous £900 for a Q7 for a complete assembly. Of course the assembly is made up of lots of parts (LED strip, motor, mirror, heater element, repeater lights etc.) each of which is overpriced.

Bonkers prices but they have got you by the balls.

My local stealer has quoted me just over £400 for the various bits and pieces, and then another £300 +VAT for two hours labour to fit it! 😳

Any breaker worth their salt will know the retail price and what they are going for on eBay. Don't expect a bargain tbh
