Wanted - Drivers side mirror - Vandals!!
Hello All,
I don't post much here but so read a lot (mainly due to me not having an S2, just the hairdressers favorite 80 variant, the cab!
)
Anyways, I work as a DJ at nightclub in Belfast, and upon returning to the car on Sat night at about 5am I discovered that someone had decided to play a bit of football with my one of my wing mirrors
. Now I'm not going to go off on a rant about mindless scumbags, I already did that at the missus.. Needless to say, a case of good old Belfast justice would not go amiss :mischeif:.
So to get to the point - I need a new wing mirror, drivers side. The glass in the old one is intact, the clips on the back of it seem ok, but the motor it clips into seems to have had it - it just hangs loose with the glass firmly attached!. I don't know if its available on its own. Probably less hassle to just replace the lot, at least its really easy to get the mirror off the car!
On another note - the mirror itself doesn't seem to be sitting as flush with the car (esp at the bottom of the mount) since this episode. I've taken it off and re-fitted it several times today and just can't seem to get it to line up as nice as the passenger (never-assualted) side. - Is it possible that the bracketry (?) inside the door has bent, moved, shifted a bit? Hard to tell at the min but I can post up a few pictures if that helps!
Apologies for the long windedness, I never could get the hang of being brief!
Cheers!
