Replace wing mirror glass
Hi,
My left side wing mirror is broken on my RHD rx7. I removed the glass using a heat gun and went with the broken pieces to my local glazier but he made the glass too big.
I figured it would be easier if i could bring him the plastic piece surrounding the mirror glass. But how do i remove it without breaking anything?
Thanks a lot!

I would be looking for a genuine mirror glass instead of having someone make a glass.
The genuine mirror glass has a smooth round black plastic type bead around the outer edge for finishing and looks.
A piece of cut glazier glass will not have the factory bead around it and it will look weird compared to the other side mirror.

Indeed a OEM mirror would be the best option, but i haven't been able to find one complete with this bead.

In the US anyone sell the spare part of the mirror?
