Try the original supplier? Why the hell would some thieving muppet want your mirror glass?! Can't leave anything alone... :evil:

I take it that the glass isn't very secure in the mirror then? :| You need some araldite!

Yeah, try the supplier first, but if you get no luck out of that then you could try ringing a few local glaziers.

I'm sure they could cut out a piece of mirror glass if you gave them a cardboard template say - or the glass from the other side.

Probably obvious why they did it but i fancy stating the obvioust this evening.

Some cahvvy t**t (just because their thieves not because they have the mirrors :oops: i quite like them) broke there's in their own, had a thick persons dilema which would have looked like this ---> :shock: for 10 mins followed by :? for 2 mins and then another :shock: for another half hour. At the end of this the only way to get another mirror was to thieve one. They saw yours first :(

Hmmm...the thieving bar steward probably living locally to know that you have teardrop DTM wing mirrors...have a look round your area, may be you could 'steal' it back? he he he, not that I condone stealing, but then its not technically stealing is it? he he he!

I had this happen to my Mini couple of years ago when at Uni. Parked up streetside, I woke up one morning to find that in the night someone had ripped off the passenger side wing mirror completely and buggered off with it! Cost me £45 to get a new one (thanks Rover), I kid you not, because on my Mini they were grey in colour and no breakers I went to had them in stock unless I wanted black :?

I guess someone had the same idea as me and didn't want to spend £45! Gits :x

sorry about the plug - but Cole at Airspeed should be able to get you them - they're a pretty common request. Drop him an email [email protected]
