    I have a 2007 Tacoma sport and the side view mirrors are color matched white. Long story short my driver side mirror was hit by someone and it stripped out the screws holding the mirror in. Only need the base to the mirror mount but can only find the entire assembly with mirror included for sale. Really don’t want to buy a entire mirror and have to color match it white. Any suggestions?

    Buy a mirror from a junkyard, then swap the white cap over. I'm pretty sure that's possible.

    The base isn't sold seperate from the mirror and there is no mirror cap. LIke he said, try a junkyard.

    As the others have mentioned, you'll need to get yourself a used (or new) assembly and swap the base mounts. It's easy and there are tutorials on TW and YouTube to help guide you through it if needed.

    Check the marketplace here or there might even be some TW folks that have some old takeoffs laying around that they're willing to give you. I actually put new paint matched mirrors on mine last year, but unfortunately ended up just tossing the old ones in the trash, otherwise I would've happily given them to you.
