Hi, a fellow ford driver (f150) pulled around a car on a residential street and clipped my mirror. His whole mirror as removed from his white beater truck. My mirror has the bottom plastic housing broken. Power fold and in/out and all glass movements work. How do i fix without giving the stealership $1400. Does anyone know if the housing on the manual fold mirror with signal is the same as the power fold. Thanks, Dave

 

First I would think HIS insurance would pay for it; and if that's not going to happen then your insurance. If you're paying for it then the first option should be a junk-yard replacement followed by a pair of non-OEM mirrors.

 

If his insurance does not pay for it then you could try some plastic epoxy.

 

Darn. Too bad its not a 150. I have exactly what you need from my old truck.

 

post a pic of what you need. mine got hit and I might have it

 

I need the square housing that faces forward and contains motors and mirror, i would post a picture but its dark and 0f outside, The guy that hit me ran and we did not get plate #. I think that the manual mirror with blinker lens box should work, thanks, dave

 

Mine isn't power fold but I will get a pic out tomorrow. It 28 here and I am barefoot and its dark so you gotta wait

 

I just went out and dug it up. The cover is fubar. Sorry, I thought it was just the glass broken

 

Thanks for checking. did you replace the whole mirror or just the casing? Thanks, Dave

 

I replaced the whole thing. We have a couple SD parts trucks at work but none of them have the power in out folding, If that helps.
You need the outside cover, right? The more I read the more I am confusing myself. You said the "housing" in the original post. I thought you were talking about the outside cover. I guess I need to take a better look at one

 

I seen a power fold mirror on eBay for $300 or $350. That was probably a take off part.
