The stealership is always the last place to go...period. Glad you got it figured out and saved a buck along the way.

Don't you ever thought the one that rob you could reading this post?

did they take them off properly or remove them with taking the round mounting bracket. this is the problem i had when one was stolen. they took this item with the glass.



i ended up buyin some mirrors off ebay, tinted blue and curved which i didnt know when i bought them. they took some getting used to but now i have no blind spot cause of the curve. (they were under 80$ a piece.)

and i also bought a used mirror assembly to get this round bracket. the mirror rebuild kist which includes this round bracket it about 180$, the whole mirror was 150 on ebay and i plan to sell for a portion of that.

they took that too. but the junkyard had everything, including the mounting bracket. and i didn't pay that much, even for OEM parts. i would have never thought they would have bmw parts. but my service advisor assured me that it was available.

honestly, i think the junk yard steals this stuff. i feel so guilty about supporting them. but what can i do about it?

Cheap rent and decent prices. If they were in the nice neighborhoods, you'd be paying stealership prices.
