lost a mirror in a small accident, where to find a new one??

[Got_boost02]

ok, i lost my drivers side mirror today in my new titanium speed. the accident was the result of having wet feet and not enough grip on the pedals. my foot just slipped off the pedal and i couldnt get to the brakes intime, so i swerved into oncoming traffic, that was stupid??, and barely squeezed btween an oncomming car and the guy in front of me, it was a miracle it wasnt worse!! but now im just plain pissed off that i dont have a mirror becase i couldnt put the brakes on. maybe i should sew mazda for a saftey issue?? anyway, does anyone know where how i can get a hold of a new one or the parts to rebuild it?? thanks guys!!

[Dexter]

sew mazda? are you even serious?

order one from the dealership, check ebay, or check car-part.com

[alexlitov]

Mirrors are about $100 from the dealer...

You can sew mazda but dont sue them, you will lose.

 

[NeverSober]

Yeah just order one from mazda.

Lessons to be learned:
a) PAY ATTENTION WHILE DRIVING.
b) Keep a safe distance between your car and the car in front of you.
c) Do not drive your car with "wet feet".
d) Do not drive your car without shoes with a good non-slip sole.
e) Do not drive your car into oncoming traffic. Ever. Rear-end someone, go off the road, hit a tree, whatever. Just DO NOT go into oncoming traffic. Doing so not only puts your life at risk but several others at the same time. An innocent family should not have to suffer because of your unattentiveness.
f) Lose the thought that you can sue anyone for any reason. It's people like you who are filing lawsuits against McDonalds for "making them fat".
g) Quit trying to blame someone(Mazda) or something(Pedals) for your own fault.
h) Buy a new mirror and order some non-slip pedals at the same time to save shipping.
i) Pay attention while driving.
j) Adjust your seat so you can safely reach all peddles without risking slippage or getting your foot caught.

I think he was kidding about "sewing"...

 

[t3ase]

You'd be suprised.

I think I paid 140 for my drivers side mirror. You can't really fix it, there's a plastic thing on the back of the mirror that clamps it to the motor to adjust it. I had a little accident with a paint ball gun on mine.

I would try to get the Euro Spec mirrors. They are made so you don't have a blind spot. TheMan has them, and they are super cheap to get.

 

[TheMAN]

it's not so cheap now when the WHOLE thing is busted off the car is it?

the only way you're going to get another mirror is to get a new one from a dealer

you will NEVER find one from a junk yard, just think of why the car is called "special edition"

t3ase:
a) WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK I WAS DOING? SLEEPING?
b) i was 3 cars back at least dude
c) are you suggesting that i get in my car and change shoes to a dry pair? give me a break.
d)a rubber sole is a rubber ****** sole for most sneakers, non-slip wasnt exactly my interest when i bought them.
e) swerving into oncoming traffic was my fault yes, but i couldnt help it, thats just where i went, and it was not a result of my unattentivness!
f) **** you dude, take a joke, why in my right mind would i think about taking mazda to court!
g) get ******, im not blaming anyone, although i thought i would make it a point to say that the pedals can get slippery when wet, but not yours, you dry them off when you get into your car during a rain storm.
h) thanks for the advice!
i) if i hadn't been paying attention, it would have been a lot worse.
j) sorry man, i dont drive my car with the seat all the way back and the back completely reclined, maybe you should show where to position my seat so that i am doing it right?

dont read into s*** 100x more than what it was, and back the **** up off my case, i didnt ask for anyone to school me about driving and jump all over my s***, i simply asked if anyone had suggestions to getting a new mirror!
