Great another goddamn stupid thing to fix. :angry:
The mirror holds for now, but its not sitting right and would be perfect for rain to get in. There's a clip at the top that is busted and the screwholes are a little stripped.
Well, here's my dilemma. I have to either fix this asap or replace asap before any rain gets in there (especially cause the car is power everything). I could probably fashion a replacement clip but I don't know how long it would hold.
Has anyone ever come to this situation and how did you fix it? :unsure:
BTW I'm talking about the housing to which attaches to the door, and not the actual mirror itself.
Does anyone know the cost of a replacement mirror housing from Ford or somewhere else?

Replace it. Even if you get a new bracket ( Wether you make it your self or buy it) its most likly not going to hold right and leak anyway. Dont go for the quick fix. Fix it right. Go down to the wreckers and get a new one.
