replacing convex mirror ???

Has anyone had to replace the little convex mirror on the TT mirrors? Is it an easy, inexpensive thing, or does it need the whole mirror assembly replaced? 2001 F250, driver side.
Thanks!!

I just looked at mine...I don't think it is replaceable. Too bad, I hate those things. I can barely use them because I am 6'2" and they are not adjustable.

They are replaceable. I replaced mine on my 2000 F350. expensive though. Mine cost me $75.00 Canadian. They just pop out of plastic sockets & you heat the sockets with a heat gun before you snap the new one in.

Yikes! Expensive. I was going to suggest a salvage yard.
I'm SURE you can motivate him.
There's one thing for sure that motivates a man...
FOOD!
Feed him after he replaces the glass, wouldn't want him eating then falling asleep before he does the work.
