Default Side Mirror Install

I had my side mirror falling off after a i hit an object, gladly its just the mirror and the mirror power control is still functioning. I went to Honda and they told me i will have to buy the whole side mirror with the assy which costs over $200 while the mirror will cost me between $15 - $19!!! apparently the mirror can not be fixed without breaking it as they will need to use force pressure while putting it in place. Is this true or are they just trying to rip me off by selling the whole package!!?

The mirrors are available seperately.

You can see how they are installed by visiting this link...

Buy the mirror from MUZ

Once it's in your hand, you'll see how it works. Pull out on the bottom.

I went to Honda and they told me
Well, that was probably your biggest mistake.

Is it a driver's mirror? If so Honda will be able to sell you a flat one but we sell actual convex driver's mirrors which help eliminate the blind spot when driving with the roof up. Anyway, glad to be of help.

for the Muz convex driver's side (at least here in North America) mirror. It's one of the best safety features that I've added to the car. Adding it removed the blind spot that could not be eliminated even by correct adjustment of the mirror.

Yet another for the Muz convex mirror. I've stopped changing lanes into people on my left.
