07 avensis wing mirror repair

    The car was parked in Tallaght hospital most of the day and some prick decided to try and take my mirror and motor assembly on drivers side. The result is I have a good mirror and housing but the motor is out of place. I have up/down movement but no left/right.

    I tried pushing the motor back but it will not re-seat. When I took off the housing, I still cannot get access. I want to remove the mirror to get a closer look at the assembly but it will not pop off.

    Does anyone know if the mirror can come off easily.

    I rang Toyota and they tell me I would have to replace the lot at €92 + vat (which ain't bad) or €140 incl VAT for part plus fitting.

    There are 3 screws underneath holding the lot and I think I could fit it myself if I had to.

    For the moment, I want to try to a repair by re-seating the motor.It is just getting to it that is stopping me.
