Roj Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Yeah once I get paid at the end of the week I'll be getting one off Adam. How easy/hard is it to replace wing mirrors by the way? Can it be done without pulling the door card off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Easy, take the door card off to make it easier, then pull off the tweeter or cover depending what the MB3 has and it'll reveal the tree bolts that hold it to the door.Obviously disconnect the electrics as well, another good reason to take the door card off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Damn, that's annoying. Is it just me or does it look like a footprint in that top picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might look for a band-aid fix in the mean time. Damn, that's annoying. Is it just me or does it look like a footprint in that top picture? Might be. I think it's where the rain has washed some of the mud splatter though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Oh dear... Even the MB6 feels for the MB3 starring at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roj Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Just found these on eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rover-45-MG-ZS-5dr-Pair-Of-Manual-Door-Wing-Mirrors-Black-Plastic-/171287455671?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27e18727b7#viTabs_0 Think I might just pick these up instead of paying £20+ for a single MB one!

Roj Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 The MB3 is not enjoying driving around with a wounded mirror. It blew the fuse to the heater controls this morning. Didn't have any spare 7.5A fuses so I took the one from the rear fog. Never foggy enough round here to need it anyway. Still debating with myself about getting an OEM replacement or getting those aftermarket ones I linked before. For now I've jammed a cracked driver side mirror in so I can at least have a functional mirror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
