I found this gem in a box of parts I bought last Sat. It's an early interior rearview mirror in very good shape, but the glass is cracked.
Can this glass be replaced? Source? Thank you. |

The plastic is very tough.
I ruined one in the interest of science. It was wobbily anyway so hacked it up to see the innerds. It must have been assembled originally as a pliable shell because there is a screw inside that is inaccesible after the glass is installed. The wobbily mount was easily remedied (loose screw) with the glass removed. Immerse in boiling water to allow assembly ? Attached thumbnail(s) |
