92 SC400 - Side-View Mirror Cracked
Hi all,
So, I believe, due to the cold weather, there's a huge crack right down the middle of my driver side side-view mirror. I'm wondering if there's a way to only replace the mirror vs the entire side view mirror body part..if you know what I mean..
Also, any idea where I can go to get these parts? I tried autoparts warehouse but they don't have any parts available for my car. I haven't called any local junkyards yet.
I'll be calling the dealer soon but I'm sure they will charge me an arm and leg. I'll def need help with the install either way.
Thanks!

Wow, just 2 sided-tape. I found this:
http://burcoinc.com/products/redi_cuts/fit_over/
This might do it, as well? If I taped over new glass to the existing broken glass, I guess the heating function on this glass would no longer work..

Here's another:

I'd have to "affix" the new glass on the old cracked glass, as the crack is basically behind the surface of the glass. I can't feel the crack with my fingernail. Another option would be to break the broken glass in it's entirety and then affix this new glass..
