[s-cars] need new drivers mirror housing and glass

[Tom Green]

Sorry to hear of the demise of the new mirror, Patrick.  At least, the  
damage
sounds minimal compared to what was possible.

Yes, the A6 mirror housing is identical, and as you see is abs plastic  
painted to
match.  You could also get the In-Pro chrome housings as well.  I  
think as long as
you stay with vehicles that have the small passenger mirror, the  
housings are the same.
If the gimbal ring is not damaged, that is all you should need except  
for new glass.

Here is dub stops ebay ad for the mirror glass.  Funny, I don't see it  
on his web site.

You probably only need the left side mirror glass.  I can split
up my set and send you the unused drivers side glass from the
group buy for $35.
