[s-cars] Passanger side mirror tilt - help

[Marc Gorelick]

Vincent:

I think I will look into the "replace the glass from the stealer" option as 
it will look the most professional and be certain to fit.  I was not at all 
sure I could just buy the glass, so this makes it a much more appealing 
possibility.

Thanks for the tip!

Marc
