Near side wing mirror is missing so I'd like to replace it/both...

Anyone know what they're off? It's a Tasmin 280i FHC.

The MOT's booked for this Saturday - no pressure then! There's still a lot to get done but if we're coming in it to BBWF failure's not an option - turning up in the Griff just wouldn't be the same!

Cheers,

To add, its a boring black plastic jobbie. A fixed piece onto the door and a squarish mirror section which rotate on a ball. Probably aftermarket anyway - there are already 4 holes in the passenger door.
I don't think not having one is a MoT failure - many of the other issues we have are.

Blimey, they're a bit shiny! Of course, we'd have to rough 'em up a bit to fit in with the rest of the car! angel

Door mirrors are a British Leyland item (Allegro, Marina etc)try Rimmer Bros, they may be able to supply new ones.

They have the supplier name (FAG) on the rear of the mirror.
Not sure if this helps.
