OK I have left everything to last minute. I admit that.
But I suspect the binmen have knocked my mirror off. Not a major problem I thought they are about 40 quid. Ordered the part then realised its the wrong one, even though the website says its a 2010 mirror it shares the part code with a 2004 one. The mirror designed changed in 2009.
So now got to get a refund from Eurocarparts.
Other problem is I wanted to build a PC for my parents Christmas present, without a car its going to be difficult and I have left it too late for on line delivery :(.
Fiat dealer want £102 for the mirror, none colour coded and none electric, but it seems to be the only one which is the correct type :( And even then its apparantly a big of a job to do as it requires a special tool but it is supposed to be possible with pliers. The design of the mirror also means its impossible to tape up :(.
So happy Christmas Rattle :(.
And I am not risking driving without a drivers mirror, in mad city traffic it would be madness.
