jerry69 10 Report post Posted September 4, 2008 Does anyone know of a source for a replacement mirror for the rear view mirror on a 69 coupe. My rear view mirror became un-glued and drop on the shifter and and cracked the mirror..... I don't want to buy a new unit I just want to buy the replacement glass..... Thanks in advance Jerry69 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted September 5, 2008 You can try looking at what this place has, may not have what you want specifically listed for your model year but dimensionally something else may fit. http://www.burcoinc.com/ There really isn't anything special about the mirror and pretty much any glass replacement shop can actually cut you a replacement for it, try asking around locally at some different ones. Don't be surprised though if this is one of those things where buying a whole new unit ($30-$40) is actually cheaper in the end then trying to replace or fix the one part (like anything chrome for example) especially if it's a day/night unit. Crack the new mirror once trying to secure it and it's good money after bad, let them do it (if they even will) and you're even priced. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SELLERSRODSHOP 13 Report post Posted September 6, 2008 the inside rear view glass isn't replaceable in most instances. they are a tapered glass that is generally molded into the housing. best bet is buy a replacement head & be done with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bnickel 10,004 Report post Posted September 6, 2008 yeah inside mirrors use specialized glass that can't be cut at the local glass shop. they do fine with exterior mirrors though. your best bet is to either buy a new replacement mirror or find a good used one somewhere Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gazoo 10 Report post Posted September 17, 2008 I went to pick-your-part and got a mirror with the nighttime-dimming feature from a Lincoln. It fits right on the same mounting boss. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
