Where to buy replacement mirror side view glass?
Yeah, you can get the glass from the dealer. I had a thread with pics of the procedure on here somewhere. If it takes you longer than 20 seconds to do the entire dealio, you're doing something wrong. It shouldn't cost more than 30 bux, and the new mirror comes already attached to the backplate.
ordered mirror from local ford for $25, people keep telling me that its not the same part if you have heated mirrors, but oh well, Ford can pay for the difference if this one breaks because of it or something.
Now i just need to figure out how i managed to pop the glass holding case out before when i hit the branch so i dont have to take apart the whole door

If you like, I still have the pics of my mirror change on my laptop at home. I could post them for you this evening. Let me know.
I'll get on it this evening. It's very simple, and once you take your broken one off (just get your fingers behind it and pull) you'll see how easy it is to replace it with the new one.
When installing the new one, just make sure you push from the very center of the glass until you here it snap into place. Done!
Thanks guys, that would help.
Definitely can't forget a towel or the girl will have my head about it.
Short Story: "During the summer, I went to a show at seaside and parked to close to the curb by accident and rubbed my front chrome rim on it and then i got out and went to see how bad and touched the chrome, which cut my finger so deep that it wouldn't stop bleeding for hours. I was walking around with 2 or 3 paper towels wrapped around that finger lol. I learnt my lesson. Never thought chrome pieces could do so much damage.

I'll get them up ASAP.
Turns out I do have heated mirrors. $56 thru this link:

but I called Ford to check and they ran my vin number and told me that the mirror only cost $21, which totally can't be correct since I have heated mirrors and I doubt the glass is the same for it or am I wrong?

my sisters boyfriend broke his mirror but he works for a glass company so he just got some mirror and cut it himself and out it back on...lol...maybe go to a glass company? it works fine on his truck lol
I did that once. IMO, you're better off getting a quality finished Ford part that already has the backplate just as they're put on in the factory. When I had one cut for my Dodge, the glass eventually started going black and stained from inside the glass. It looked like crap.




thank you
