Removing door mirror casing

[peelmeister]

The casing on the driver door mirror is cracked and needs to be replaced - its the black bit that runs around the mirror, about an inch deep before the colour coded housing

Can you replace this without taking the mirror off?

And can you buy/get hold of this bit easily or do you need to buy the full mirror and dismatle it?

Thanks in advance peeps

so, can I buy any colour coded mirror and just replace the outer cover with my colour or will it need to be resprayed?

The blue bit in your case andy does just pop of the black casing so yes just buy any mirror and swap the blue over.

cheers for that mark, I'll get trawling ebay then - although as you've seen the blue could do with blowing over anyway

Yes it was that side that the paint was damaged!
