Rear view mirror

[D2BBA]

Alright folks,

The rear view mirror on the FD is knackered.  The glass has started to blacken right round the edge and it generally looks poop!:o

Are new FD mirrors available as an easy fix, allowing me to leave the mounting bracket in place and replace just the glass and frame?

If it has to come off what can I use to remove the bonding stuff?

Cheers in advance!:Thumbs-up

Heat gun or hair dryer may help, or even a flat knife blade to lift the think of it?

Still looking for a new mirror tho  :/
