How Much!

ok i just managed to prang my near side wing mirror against an oncoming renault espace which more or less destroyed it. no problem i thought a quick visit to my local mr t who quoted me 348 euros for complete wing mirror assy, 44 euros for cover, 35 to paint it and another 50-60 to fit it. almost 400 euros for a wing mirror...someone's taking the p***!!!

Sounds about right to me

I noticed recently that japarts have wing mirrors for the T25 avensis. They're around £80-100.

cheers andy i checked out the site and true enough about 80 quid for the one with indicator,have put the feelers out with the scrap yards and if no joy then i'm gonna demand one tonight when i get in. my mirror cover is salvagable with only one plastic clip busted .

as for 400 euros sounding about right....call me old fashioned but its a wing mirror and its not diamond encrusted...
