rear view mirror problem.

was cleaning the inside of the windscreen the other day and broke me rear view mirror off.

it is the sort with three screws through a triangle plate into the roor and the mirror part looks as though it clips in with a single screw up the centre of a little plastic piece that secrures in place...

question is: can u just buy the plate and little bit by themselves or is a trip to the wreckers on the cards??

cheers

You can buy the small triangle part from Nissan for bout 10... I went thru 2 of em, threw a wallet in the car once, perfect hit on mirror.. Its designed to break and be replaceable.

+1. Mine was broken when I bought the car but had been glued on, kept coming back off again. New part was less than $20 from Nissan. Its a safety thing in case of an accident apparently.
