senseless destruction..

  Top of Page

Hi All,

Some deviant thought it'd be a great idea to kick off my passenger side mirror on friday night. I just dont understand the mentality of some people. Many actions may have a negative result on the victim, but reward the perpetrator with some sort of positive outcome. (Theft for example?) But to just destroy something for no other benefit than the satisfaction of its destruction just seems so senseless..

Call me a wimp but every time I look at my beautiful car, missing a mirror with those ugly stubby wires hanging out - it really does make me want to cry.

I really really want to get this fixed as soon as I possibly can - its really pissing me off. I rang my local dealership and (not surprisingly) this part will cost ~$472 brand new. I could claim it on insurance, but my excess is $350 - And I'd have to go through the whole muck around with a police report etcetera etcetera. It just doesnt seem worth while for the ~122 I'd save.

I know there's a classified section on this website, but obviously I'm chasing something fairly specific. Can any of you recommend a good dismantler or importer who might be worth a try?

If your curious its an MY02 liberty heritage (white) passenger side external mirror assembly.

Thanks for sharing my pain.

sorry to hear that mate! Some people are unbelievable...

you should have no problem finding a new mirror. Just ring around some wreckers and you should be able to source some fairly easily. you'll pay a lot less than that quote you got from Subaru thats for sure. They even come up on ebay from time to time. Any gen 3 mirror will fit as well as import RSK and Gen 3 GT-B

Just go to yellow pages online and start from the top of the list
