If you can get all the bits off to give yo access to the bare mirror body, I'd think it might be something you could fix with one of the liquid metal epoxy's or even some fibreglass / P45 (or P40, which ever one is the flexible one) or some resin and fibreglass mat / bandage? I'd first wash and dry it thoroughly, remove any paint (Dremell?) where you might like to get some reinforcement to stick and take it from there. Cheers, T i m |

If you can find a solvent-weld glue for it, that would work. Also, remove the broken-off piece from the car, rather than trying to glue it in-situ. Then, when you refit, put some mudguard (wide) washers under those fixing screws, as that will extend the fixing area to include plastic which didn't break off. I had one kicked off by 3 youths high on crack. I got some entertainment value out of going to watch all the court hearings (which covered lots of vandalism, not just my door mirror). By the time it got to the end of the 6 or so hearings, only one of the three was still going through the process - of the others, one had vanished, and the other was being held on remmand for rape, so didn't get to attend court for the lesser cases anymore. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

My thought was 2-part epoxy given the way things have broken, assuming it can be dismantled further. Depending on the area that is going to still be in contact, that should be ok. I've not used liquid metal epoxy. It's basically the same as any 2 part epoxy just a lot stronger. ;-) I think it may depend on how the break re-sits and if the epoxy is going to be under the fastenings. If it is I feel the liquid metal type will allow the retaining screws to be fully tightened again. Another thing I've done is put some tape under any holes and just fill the holes (missing plastic?) with epoxy, level with the original surface. Cheers, T i m |

It matters little if it's a door, wing or interior mirror, just that you offer the OP something that might actually help fix the thing. Same with your 'shock absorbers' ... if that's how they are commonly known then you using a different term, no matter how technically correct, may not help the situation. The only time it might is if the industry refers to something differently and when using a search engine to find replacements or information etc. shrug Cheers, T i m |

Fortunately, our outer case was ok - so I transferred the internals and glass from the new one - and it's now fine. I did exactly the same with a mate's StreetKa. Ford wanted 150 quid for the assembly - and that was unpainted. Got one (wrong colour) from breaker's and transferred parts (mounting bracket and glass) from that to fix the broken one. As in your case, the outer shell was ok but the mounting bracket to the body was broken. I had to cut through and resolder the wiring loom to do it which was time consuming and fiddly (motorised and heated mirror). The plug shells on the end of the wires were impossible to get off. It all worked ok in the end. -- (\_/) (='.'=) Bunny says: Windows 10? Nein danke! (")_(") |
