I got a replacement mirror glass from my local glazier. He cut me one for about £6 (I'm in the UK but I'm sure any glazier can do the same)

I am going to get some early glass cut next week my guy charges me $10 each. Let me know if you want any and I will add yours to my order. You can just pay for shipping. Is there a difference from early to late?

Early and late are different sizes. Good price. I have a glass shop that does it for $25 and fits the glass to each mirror. Had a cheaper source but they were sloppy and could have gaps in the corners.

Yes I had started working on these. They waterjet cut pretty well, but the issue is that we need a lead in and it leaves a tab that we need to grind off. I can get a tool to do this cheaply, but I've been tied up on a few other projects lately. I will have them in the future.

Just an FYI, I ordered an early mirror from AA and later a late version, they were both the same size and did not quite fit ether mirror properly.

I broke one of my mirrors upon dis-assembly.

Also I had no expectations or proper fitment from the supplier I you know what I mean...

I know that AA usually keeps both sizes of mirrors in stock, but you have to count on them grabbing the right one for your order. rolleyes.gif

How can you tell for the early ones, the crease in the elbow ?
I would be interested in 2 if the offer is still open.
Thanks

Early has a hard 90 angle on the chrome arm. Late is curved and slightly larger glass.

You are correct about the price.
