arggghhhh -- sorry to hear that. You can just imagine it was what some drunk idiot who did for fun, probably doesn't even remember it the next day, and leaves you with your pride and joy damaged :thumbsdown:
Its my worst nightmare after spending so much money on mine.
Hope you can get it sorted at minimal cost and hassle -- good luck...

Can you not use the internals from a "standard" mirror, for example from a breakers yard, which may be cheaper way of getting it fixed. Or are you referring to the M5 mirror-glass that needs replacing?
