Anyways, i got over it on the 100mile trip back to Essex.
Having never had to replace the mirror in the mirror im not 100% if it possible. Is it just a case of getting someone to cut it into the right shape and glueing it on? I dont fancy have to source another pair of mirrors :(

Although not a good thing to happen might have been a accident as surely someone trying to damage your car would have either scratched it or broken something more expensive?
Could have been worse mate, hopefully if someone did it on purpose somebody might have seen them?? hope you get the parts chap:(
I\'m looking at getting a camera put outside the house keeping an eye on the purple one like;)

Hi Deano.
Real bummer that someones done this,
:mad:
If you trace around the O/S mirror glass then turn it over you will have the shape of the N/S one.
Then go to Halfords with your mirror shape and get a replacement one ( they have a rack with loads of different shapes ) , you have enough of the original glass left to stick the replacement over the top with a sticky pad.
This is something l have done a few times over the years to save buying a whole wing mirror.
Hope this helps.

Cheers Gurj & Clive.
Because of the fact that the mirror doesnt stick out further than the bodywork im sure it was on purpose. Too many little f*ckers with fiesta\'s and 50cc scooter down the road who wouldnt leave it alone.
Iwill check out Halfords as soon as i get a chance, in the mean time, anyone know who makes carbon fibre mirrors, and got any pics?

When you say "in car" you mean security cameras or road cameras??
I dont think theres a point in putting security cameras inside the car as if its stolen then you wont know jack, whereas outside de house cameras you can see you they are, just place the camera where its not obvious, or infact put it wheres its in plain view but out of reach?
I am looking at getting a camera set up and security posts in the drive too.............. someday when i get round to it (touch wood)

What a bummer, not as bad as mine though. Four days after buying mine (I\'ve had it about three weeks now) I came out to find someone had smashed my rear window, 320 quid it cost me, little shites...
Anyways, I work in a glass factory and we deal with mirrored glass so if you get no luck in finding a replacement localy or on the cheap then e-mail me or reply here and as long as you pay the postage (not sure how much it\'ll be) I\'ll cut and send you one for free.
