So my neighbour managed to reverse into my car, despite it being parked in the most obvious place.

The good news is that she only managed to take a chunk out of the wing mirror. The glass itself didn't break just the casing.

Does anyone now of a good place in Hampshire to get it replaced? Neighbour is paying so am not too worried about cost, I just want to make sure it's done well. I could take it to Honda in Basingrad but are there any other recommendations (might get them to do some touch up paintwork at the same time).

Cheers.

 

I use Southampton Honda but have been to Basingstoke Honda and they seem fine to me. Never used them though.

I did use Reading Honda and they were really helpful and great customer service.

When my Mum had a Civic she always used Clover Leaf Honda in Ascot, but they like to hang onto your car for ages if anything is wrong with it, good service but they take their time!

 

what colour is your car

there are a few second hand mirrors in the for sale section

 

Its very easy to do, just 3 nuts inside the door trim and its off!

 

Hmmm, hadn't thought about that. I am incredibly lazy after all...

Anyway, it's MC Blue so will take a look at the for sale section.

 

It should take no more than 15-20 minutes, even for a complete novice

you can probably get a new casing here.

Be warned however than the sum of the parts from here was over £500 (yes £500!!), for a new mirror for our 4 week old civic (the wife didn't much like the fact that it was too new). Complete mirror fitted from my dealer was £270.

It's a good option if you just want a specific part... sadly my wife left most of the bits scattered all over the road and in many tiny pieces....

 

Blimey, 265quid for the whole assembly. Think I'll look on here or fleabay.

 

Plenty on Fleabay at the moment, also worth calling Andy (aka integrastella) as he breaks many S2000s: http://www.cudgel.co.uk/integrastella/ or contacting GarageR, a trader on here.
