Broken outside mirror

I have the paddle style manual mirrors. Last night I was trying to back out of my girlfriends driveway which is only about 1 1/2" wider than my truck. There's houses on either side, one has an electric meter. As I was backing up I noticed my mirror touched the meter.. I tried pulling forward, but since it was on a hill and I have a manual transmission, I slid back just enough and broke the mirror. The actual mirror assembly did not break, just cracked the mirror. Anyway, can I replace just the glass or do I have to replace the whole thing?

How much are you looking to sell them for? I'd only need the passenger side, but I ca understand if you'd like to sell them as a pair. Are they in good condition?

There is a listing for just the glass on the Trademotin site, but it is a call for request on the 2008 MY truck.

You can do this with your local dealer if you want to, or any of the online Ford parts dealers.

Collision catalog -> Front Door -> Outside Mirror -> Mirror Glass
Mirror glass Back - Manual - Manual 04-08 N/A
