I bought the complete mirror assembly in my factory paint code brand new in box from Toyota for 299 shipped. I didn't think that was too bad so if this mirror lasts 11 years with no issues like the factory one I'll be happy. The part is normally like 600.00 so I jumped on the deal.

I think my driver’s side mirror may be dead. Not sure the issue. I went thru the car wash and they drove it out with the mirrors folded in, I knew something was wrong. Any tips to repair? Or does this require an all new mirror assembly? It sounds like the motor is about to die too. Passenger side seems fine.

I wound up buying 2 new mirrors for $600 each and when they came in, discovered thwy dont cone with glass, despite what I was told by Lexus. The glass was an extra $500 each, so I asked them to install both mirrors and pull my old glass for me. I probably would jave broken one, so it was qorth it for them to do it.
They didn't charge much either, something like $150, which was super cheap, relatively speaking.

I got a "little" too close to the neighbors garbage can @ 10 MPH or so, hard on the glass. I found a used glass on evil bay for about 50 bucks, now to get it installed. Grrr, wasn't rainin an hour ago.
