Ordered replacement mirror from well known supplier, got a POS that was not cut right in 3 of the corners and 1/3 of the thickness of the original. Being TOO THIN glass flopped around in plastic back housing. Going to take OEM and have it re-silvered.

I have a local glass shop (they do a lot of showers etc) make me a few for $6 each and they fit perfectly |
