  • Ford C-MAX 2006 (silver) - Broken door mirror 18 Dec 2010 (Forum)
    Following a recent disagreement with a concrete post in an underground car park, I now have a broken door mirror on my Ford C-Max. I'm thinking about trying to repair it myself, (I only want to replace the glass) but it looks like the glass is attached by wires to the rest of it. I've had a look at replacements on the internet and it appears that you can only buy the whole unit, which may need colour matching to the car.
