Hey guys, my gf was driving her corolla on the hwy, when something hit her driver side mirror and shattered it. The whole unit is fine, just the mirror shattered. My question is, do I have to get the mirror from the dealer or are there aftermarket ones? Or do anyone of you guys know someone who can fix it for a good price? Thanks!

You could probably get one for like 15 bucks from a scrap yard on mitchell island. I'm not too sure about replacing the actual unit though.

^ They usually sell the unit as a whole and not the glass itself. You can probably get it at the dealer for about 30 dollars.

call dealer and get a price for the glass, then try auto wreckers on mitchell island and see if they will sell you just the glass

try ralphs on mitchell island

Go to an auto glass place and get them to cut you one.

just an old tercel! i was surprised too when he told me. but it was for the whole side mirror unit, not just the mirror.

Just get it from the dealer. It's not THAT expensive.
