wha, u are right, DIY is way to go n price is not too crazy. call me cheapskate but, asking for 1k is audacious unless it is designer's.

In China, 1k can get me side mirror with sidewinders that auto lock on to obstructing safety hazards ie, the lorry and blast it to kingdom come.

Forgive my insanity, was reared by a small lorry yesterday in carpark. faint dent and hardly visible. Auntie driver apologised profusely. this is no biggy, let her go asking for no compensation or whatsoever. what bothers me is my naggy wife who claims that I am "too nice" to auntie and may have sent wrong signal to that auntie.... nag nag nag + let mother in law know = nag x 2 the damage....

not too bad liao, i have seen lorry reared an Altis side mirror. Driver uncle dun give a sh1t about it...:tsk:

not very sure abt tat... my bro-inlaw told me to change to carbon which i am also thinking abt it... now the problem is the indicator as i seen water droplet in it whenever car washing is done... so i was like trying to see if i can just change the whole cover only without changing the motor itself... think will proceed to workshop to get it check before i decide wat to do next... thanks alot bro...

Not require to change the mirror and the motor within. Just replace the cover will do, dont throw away the old set, sell it to me if you dont want it.
