Best place to find a replacement wing mirror for an 05 Corolla?

terrydel

Struggling to find anywhere online myself, would I be better trying scrap yards?
Missus clipped the mirror of another car while crossing on the Wicklow gap yesterday, ours was totalled as I'd assume the other was too.
Looking for a silver one which is electric adjustment.
Cheers.

If your near try kilcock car dismantles. You might get lucky and get one the right colour. If you buy new it will prob come just primered and need to be painted.

Try your local motor factor. I found a replacement for my 02 Polo one. It was a brand new Chinese knockoff for €90, and I paid a mechanic €30 to put it on.

Findapart.ie or partfinder.ie searches all the dismantled yards in Ireland for places that have the same car as yours. Dead handy.

I got about 80 hits there for a 05 corolla. There's some pics up as well from some of the breakers yard websites that you link to.

Just remember that on the 02 to 07 Corolla that the exterior mirrors are different between the pre facelifted and facelifted model.

They changed the connector on the facelift mirrors from a round to square connector. So there not interchangeable. Adverts may have one of two for the e12 corolla.

Drivers side mirror is always hard got as it's the first to get blown off.

Adverts has a few lads breaking corollas

I have an electric drivers mirror for an 05 corolla. It’s red but in perfect condition. Must check if it’s square or round connector . Pm me if interested.

Could paint it silver for you if you want.

This is the one, is it the facelifted one? Guessing it is.

That's a facelift car, from 2004 to 2007.

Looks like you only need a mirror cap, not a complete unit. These aren't expensive, even from a dealer, maybe €30~, if you're any way practical you could make a half decent job of painting it yourself.

Glass is completely gone. Not sure if some of the plastic also shattered with the impact.

You can get the glass cheap enough.

Got a few responses on partfinder, will sift thru them tonight and if they have a silver one I'll take it, if not I'll give you a shout. Thanks for the offer so far.
