So I came home to this!

I have a 210 bhp 2005 forester xt

I've had it a month if that so no idea if it's heated or anything but the wing mirrors is fine. 

It has been ripped off where it attached to the a pillar. 

I need some help with a part number and maybe a part to ASAP.

So angry!

Its really got me angry. No note no nothing.

i need to sort asap as its my daily so i need help with sourcing a replacement.

Yup. 

I need some help with a part number though. 

I have seen a 2003 mirror but it doesn't seem to be right. Mine has the indicator built in and I can't see that is does.

That sucks ...

Yours is the facelift version SG XT so has indicator in the mirror, any late 2005(2006to be sure) to 2008 SG will be same .

Won't be cheap even used, try few local breakers then subaru specialist breakers, even eBay be light on options for these late SG mirrors .

you may be able temporary re-attach which will give you more time find suitable replacement . new is silly money .
We paid around £60 for nice used ones before, can be more and very rare anything decent for late SG going be under £50.

Plus side, O/S normally easier source as N/S gets more demand from mirror to mirror clipping .

MR B you are a hero!

Thank you for the info. They are looking like hen's teeth unfortunately.

I have managed to bodge it into place, it is actually going into the garage today as CD auto changer didn't work from purchase so might get them to fill/glue with apoxy resin (or the correct spelling) as a temp fix.

 

At least now I know what I'm after.

cheers guys

Yeh we had limited options when needed one, used subaru breakers as none locally .

Do get listed on eBay every now and then .

Just do half decent bodge to keep it in place (don't want it dropping down damaging door) & hunt one down .
