Hey guys, advertised wing mirror on here for price of postage 3 times with no response, put it on ebay and within a few hours its breaking £40.

How much is a ball & socket wing mirror actually worth??

just curious

Hi James

I reckon if you can get £40 for it you are laughing.

Not based on any experience what so ever!

Yes I saw that on ebay and was wondering if I could finance replacements from selling mine. I have seen that later mirrors are from Citroen CX25 or XM's but they are not exactly common either. Has anyone fitted TEX mirrors as replacements for the ball and socket type ? do they look OK ? and what about the existing hole in the door... is that covered by all/any of the later replacements or do I need to do something with that too ?

any advice appreciated driving

This subject has been covered numerous time - if you do a search you will find some alternative mirrors that folks have done - including me Mazda MX5 Mark 1 see pic in profile.

Thanks Harry

so
MX5 Mk1
Fiesta MK2
Audi TT
Toyota MR2
Citroen CX25

loads of choice but has anyone fitted the TEX mirrors or do they look too old-world ?
