:mad2: :mad2: :mad2: :mad2: i was backing out of the garage and i didnt pay attention close enough (messing with the heat) and i ran the mirror in to my dads new buick enclave, both mirrors (mine and his) are smashed but this one is worse so i would like to know where to have it fixed and how much am i looking to spend. all the mechines still work, but the mirror is shattered.

thanks for any input.

MAN that sucks.. I don't know if you could find a replacement piece of glass for that since it has the led turn signals embedded in. I'd probably check with the dealership first.

thanks for the imput, i new that more was worse but i wanted all the bells and whisles. i looked and to replace the glass was 32 dollars, but the price jumps to 200 when i add the heated, memory, puddle light, power fold, turn signal, and all the other stuff i could have easilly lived with out. i guess my 7 years is starting already. :cryin:

LOL ya I was just wishing the other day that I had some nice leds turn signals. But your right more is worse is some cases. Compared to my old truck, the yukon has a eight times as many bells that could just stop dinging!! you might be able to find the whole assembly on ebay for cheaper..

i have a dealer friend who said he could get it for me at cost. but i wonder what at cost is. and if its just the glass i could replace it my self , but if its the entire unit i would have a pro do it, thats the difference.

ya cost' would be better. Try gmpartsdirect. and it shouldn't be that hard to replace it. Without looking at it, I would say it probably takes you taking off the little trim triangle on the inside of the door, 3 bolts, and a plug-in harness. So I dont' think it would be too difficult

 

[Rwayne]

I wanted to see if I could find a picture.. sure nuff. It looks like it would only be three bolts and a plug-in harness. Here's one I just found on ebay. You'd would probably have to paint one off of ebay..http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-06-Tahoe-Suburban-Yukon-Denali-PS-Power-Mirror-OEM_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33649QQihZ007QQitemZ170166003560QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

thanks for the info, but i wonder how well the paint would match.

 

[Rwayne]

well if ya get a good guy to paint it, it should* be perfect! it really sucks if can't just replace the glass though!

Sorry about your ding, Thunder. I was thinking that you might be able to talk to one of the mechanics at the dealership (they usually appreciate questions and people listening to them) who could let you know for certain if all the mechanics are included in your undamaged mirror body. I have replaced one on a Land Rover and is was quite simple with just a plug-in, four screws (if memory serves me) and wipe it clean. Good luck.

i got just the glass on ebya for 56 dollars, it has every thing the old one did. its heated and it has turn sig. i poped the old one out, and poped the new one in and used windex, now im good as new. thanks for the help. my dealer said 250 for just the glass. HA. i got it for 200 off. :yesnod: :cool2:

Good show.

My right rear window regulator bit the dust and the motor got really hot (cables got tangled up), dealer wanted 225 for a new regulator w/motor. I paid 17+ shipping, I think 8 bucks for shipping (no call for a regulator that week I guess). It was brand new in the box with the wrapping still. Saved 200 smackers for that little gem.

Gotta love eBay, check ratings though!

Good for you and way to go (and I learned something, thanks).

 

[Rwayne]

Nice thunder!!!! I was hoping for an easy fix.. I didn't think they would have a replacement part like that and never looked. Thats awesome!:thumbsup:

 

[Rollin Thunder]

lol,thanks, although getting the mirror to come out took some work, a few band aids later and im good to go.
