    Thumbs down Driver's Mirror Busted

    so I've had the GTi 4 days and some lovely person has smashed the glass in the drivers mirror. The rest of the mirror seems OK. Can I replace just the glass or am I up for a whole mirror?

    I have a spare driver side mirror glass if your back plate is intact
    you just need to glue it up
    5 bucks and it's yours

    The mirror glass on mine just fell off of its own accord!

    Happy to report that the ebay replacement was pretty straightforward though the prongs connecting the heated element were a little different.
