Assholes ! You should see how clean the took them off though ... no damage or even marks on the brackets left behind and the wires cleanly cut with a snips.

There's a slight funny side though. They were banjaxed anyway ! One didn't fold, the other was (badly) held together with fibre glass and resin, while both of them were in that loose flappy state which is common for these mirrors. And they were quiet scratched up too.
So what are these mirrors new - €600 each ? Will call up the insurer today and see if they're covered.

That sux...feckin' scangers.....more crime with the aftermath of the Celtic Tiger demise?
I think they are about $800+/ea here ...comp. insurance would cover but you would need to cover the deductible first.
I would try the local scrap yards or from MrBMW...assuming they fit across the pond.
