Hello everyone,



Hope all is well.



I have a 2004 LX 470; VIN: JTJHT00W443546011 and need the passenger side mirror glass.



Can someone please help me with what the correct Part Number is?



Is the Part #: 87931-60850?



So to purchase OEM parts at better pricing, I’ve been using the VIN of a 2007 Land Cruiser; VIN: JTEHT05J372103497.



By doing so, I came up with Part #: 87931-60801, which I ordered.



Upon part arrival, however, I see that the connection / plug is different, as shown by the photos attached.



Can you please help me figure out the equivalent Toyota Part # to my mirror?



Hope I don’t need the Lexus part, as the price difference is shocking.



And any idea what might be the difference in features between the two Part #’s above?



Any recommended online parts stores would be welcome as well.



Thank you very much.



My best.

 

Why did you use a different VIN? That's a good way to get the wrong part. 87931-60850 is what you want it's a fair bit cheaper here

That part is not used on any Toyota.

edit- there are a few on Ebay for example

Thank you very much!

Trying to save on parts, hence seeking Toyota instead of Lexus parts.

LX part is $275, while LC part is $55. BIG DIFFERENCE.

Seems both dim, but the LX one is heated as well.

Willing to forgo heating, but any assistance with rewiring the LC connector?

 

Best to get a wiring diagram, or you could use an ohm meter and find the pins with the lowest resistance that will be the heater element the other pins the dimmer. But keep in mind this is still just a guess, although probably correct.

 

Thank you!

 

Reason why a new mirror is needed is not because the glass is broken, but because the clips at the rear backing are broken, as circled.



Instead of ordering the Lexus part; can someone please assist with how I can disassemble the mirror, removing the glass from the backing, so I can use the old mirror with the new backing?



Argh; I hope this may be possible! $200 extra for the Lexus part is awfully painful.



Thank you!

 

Took a close look at the new part and it doesn't seem that the part / back panel can be disassembled / detached from the mirror glass. Argh.

 

Let's get back on topic please folks (OT posts pruned). Looking to save money on parts isn't anything to put down.

dbs6000 you might also be able to find a used one from a salvage yard, although you might need to buy a larger piece than you are looking for if there isn't a local one you can put hands on.

try www.car-parts.com to search across multiple salvage yards

 

Thank you Dave.

 

Dave, thanks and back on-topic. I've found Partsouq has the least expensive parts, genuine Toyota or Lexus, great pricing especially compared to local dealers, quick shipping, and a great online parts catalog. Some don't like the fact they're located in the ME, but I've done more than a dozen orders with zero issues for both an older LX and newer Land Cruiser. They may be helpful for dbs6000's issue.

Would responded sooner but just got out of the LC after driving from upper WA state to SW Idaho today.
