Sarcastic?  Yeah, sure we are.

:)

My driver's side mirror is beginning to delaminate, and the heat isn't
working any more.  For this reason, I'd like to replace it.  Now, maybe I
could just source the guts from somewhere (preferred option) rather than
buying new, but I would buy new if I had too.  The heated part is good for
demisting the things when it's raining out, and defrosting them on a frosty
morning.  Getting rid of the delamination is just gravy.

Ideas?

Eric
