Hey there everyone,
I had a bit of misfortune yesterday whilst reversing out of my garage, I clipped the passenger side mirror and broke it, I didn't swear very much. anyway I can get a new non genuine mirror for $56.10 plus postage from this guy on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Ford-Falcon-A...742.m153.l1262 and was wondering if anyone has had any dealings with him, I can also get a second hand one for about $90 delivered. Any info would be good and appreciated cheers Whiskers |

Do you know how to use Ebay. Are you aware that purchasing something from a seller who has 3000+ sales with 100% positives would be safer than purchasing from Kmart. At least you will not come out to find some kid has pushed the rear door of their 4wd open with their foot, banging into the side of your car!

the only issue you may have is if you want to put chrome covers on them, people have had problems putting them on non genuine mirrors...but as said above, it will be fine; these guys also do them http://www.ozeparts.com/

Mate, personally I would get the genuine second hand mirror, there is nothing quite like the genuine article.

thanks everyone I ended up going to the local wreckers and got it for $88. I didn't want to be driving around for to much longer without it, as the coppers around here are onto you pretty quick.
