Mirror........

Hi all,

let my buddy borrow my 2002 SD last night and some idiot decided to try to go through a hole that was slightly too small for his panel truck..........consequently I had the drivers mirror nearly driven through my drivers window.........needless to say, it's toast, along with some chipped paint and chipped window glass.

Question.........how much is the replacement mirror going to cost, paddle type, no heat, and what would a replacement window cost? How hard is it to replace each item? is it a do it yourself project? I an going to get an estimate to do the work, but like tinkering myself and may try to do the work myself.

Thanks.

Are the mirrors powered? If powererd you are looking at $213.02 if not, $131.94. For the cost you might want to consider upgrading to the 2008 tow mirrors. I got mine for $144 each w/ power, heat, and signal.

For a replacement window, look up DiamondAutoGlass.com they sell the OEM Carlite glass and had a decent price when I had them replace my windshield.

The mirror is an easy replacement. You can do it with a simple socket set.

Pretty easy. The only thing that might seem complicated would be splicing the wires as the plugs are not the same. But a quick search on the forum would yield how to correctly wire them. They are a direct fit for the previous years except for me, the passenger side mirror had one small alignment tab that I had to shave down as there was no hole in the door for it.

So if you can operate a ratchet and know how to splice wires, you can handle it.

www.directfordparts.com I don't think they have them listed yet, but either create an account on their website or try to contact them via their email form. Or you can call 1-800-532-0819 and ask for Brian Walsh. He has been awesome in looking up part #s and getting me the best price. They are a sponsor of FTE.

The part #'s you want for the black mirrors w/ power adjust, signals, and heat (no power fold or telescope) are:

Right: 7C3Z17682BB
Left: 7C3Z17683BB

Haven't done the harley headlights yet. Still on the fence if I want to do those or a different smoked model.
