Interior mirror problem

Post by MoggieJazz »

Hi all,
Sorry to be a pain but have got nowhere looking for this part and wonder if you can help.
Th rear view mirror glass in my split screen series II needs replacing. Its the mirror fitting that screws into teh centre screen pillar. Thats in good nick. I need either a new mirror glass or a new mirror unit that clamps onto the ball thingy.
Has anybody got any idea where I could buy either from - doesnt have to be genuine , just useable!
thanks all

Get a piece cut at a glazing company and replace it or hunt around on ebay. Most cars of the period used similar mirrors so don't just search on Morris Minor parts....

I took mine to a glazier and had him cut a new one out of mirror glass using mine as a template. The original one is 2mm glass, the new one is made of 3mm stuff, but it fits OK.

(ps: As you posted an identical message in the 'bodywork' forum I've deleted that post and added the answer from twincamman to this thread to avoid confusion. There's no need to post the same message in different forums - you'll get a response wherever you post it! :D )

As above, your local glaziers, cut it slightly larger then you can see the whole of the rear screen.
