Broken Ford Focus wing mirror

Some lout broke the wing mirror on the passenger side of my ford focus (pure vandalism - was facing the pavement!). Its a manual one. Only the mirror is smashed.
Doesn't look too difficult to replace. Any idea where I could get one? I've checked Halfords and Kwik Fit and both said no (and were pretty unhelpful!)

Do you have a dismantlers near by? We do and they stock many car parts. If not it will be just have to be your Ford garage.Bringing up 2 handsome boys and 1 gorgeous girl the MSE way!Joseph born 19th December 2001Matthew born 8th August 2007Tara born 23rd January 20110

A used mirror from a scrappy will be about a tenner.
Try putting an ad on the likes of www.breakeryard.com or www.findapart.com0 -
Hmmm surprised halfords said no, I have a ford galaxy and have bought a replacement mirror from there. Ford wanted an unbelievable amount of £24 for just the glass, it was £6 at Halfords. The wing mirror itself was ok just the glass broken. Halfords have a section for mirrors with a guide that tells you which one to buy to fit your car. Good luck0

Ebay is the best bet. My dad got his electric mirror off there for a fraction of the price, then got his local garage to fit it!
A Ford Focus is a common car, so it shouldn't be too expensive!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -

Life is about give and take, if you can't give why should you take?0

if its just the mirror -- you can get these stick on glass panels for about 5pound just the mirror glass... and stick it over the broken one -- ask in your local car parts shop -- dont go to halfords they'll just charge you a fortune for being open on a Sunday and sell you the same thing -- ask the local youths who thrash about in their cars -- they'll know where your local parts shop is.. otherwise -- breakeryard.com et al will defo send you something for 10-15quid!
Good luck!
