Sideview Mirror Apparently Stolen From Assembly

I walked to my truck to find that the mirror from the assembly was stolen. The signal still works, and the white alignment panel still moves in response to the controls, so that leads me to believe it was stolen, and not hit, as it was originally folded to avoid being hit.

My insurance deductible is $500, so I might just order a new mirror, overnight it, and install it myself. Unless I should have the dealer do it. Has anybody replaced this before?

 

It would be very easy to fix this. You can order just the mirror glass and it simply snaps in.

 

Thanks I found it on Amazon, should be a $50 fix after one day shipping.

 

I don't remember which one I have, but I have one. I sold the other. I can check if you like.

Edit: I got rid of the driver side.

 

Or just go steal one off someone else. You know, pay it forward.

kidding. Seriously though, who steals a mirror?

 

When you get the replacement glass, the two tabs at the top will need to slide into and behind the "slots" at the top of the white plastic plate. Make sure you push it all the way up before you try to snap the bottom clips of the mirror onto the "bars" on the white plastic plate. It will take a bit of force to make the mirror snap in. Once you think you have it in, give it a tug or two to make sure it won't fall out.

 

Some dirt-bag to lazy to go buy his own I suppose.

 

Thanks Shadow, I appreciate that. Seriously there's always an asshole. I'm just grateful he didn't damage anything or scratch it while stealing.

 

check rockauto.com as well, I've gotten a mirror for around $20 on there

 

Yeah but I got one day shipping which was about $25 because it's not safe to drive without the mirror, due to the shell obscuring my rear view mirror. Thanks though.

 

OP.... Are you in the LA area?

You need some Trail Toys mirrors. @SMKYTXN
