Side View Mirror
I have a 2012 Lexus ES 350. Got a hit and run by a motorcycle in traffic. I need a new passenger side-view mirror. Any suggestions on where I can pick one up?
Thanks,
Ro

If the base and the door sheet metal is not bent or distorted try an Auto Recycling Yard (AKA junk yard). You might even find one
in your color to avoid painting the housing. Toughest part will be taking the inner door panel off without breaking the clips. Try
online to search the yards inventory, some high volume stuff gets picked and is inside while you may need to come prepared to
disassemble a car for other items. Time honored experience, watch for signs announcing "Junk Yard Dog"...

Another option is buy a new a generic one from Amazon/rock-auto (usually black). Some people on youtube have used matching spray paint... you could try that.
Not the same car, but I recently changed side mirror on my older camry without taking the door panel off. Just put a wedge and was able to access the connector from the top. Much easier than removing the whole door panel... so try that first.
