Help Needed

UPDATE

After a lot of searching I ordered a new mirror assembly from a dealer. Should have it Tuesday. Wish me luck on not breaking this one :shocked:


Does anyone have or know someone who may have an RT right mirror glass? Or if you know of a salvage yard that may have one. I broke mine attemting to remove it for adding LED turn lights behind it. BRP will not sell the mirror glass only and you have to purchase the complete housing at $194:gaah:. I tried a mirror company as well as an auto body shop and neither could help with a mirror that light can shine through. So I am hoping that there maybe a damaged housing that has intact glass

Have you tried cranking-up your internet searches for motorcycle salvage yards? :dontknow:
Good luck and Happy Hunting! :thumbup:

Tough one..!!

have seen this request before. One is to find a similar repacement mirror at a car acc shop large enough to take to a cutter and trim to fit..Will be a lot cheaper than an oem mirror assembly...:thumbup:

Some window glass repair businesses have and will cut automotive mirror glass. Please note mirror glass is different then regular. Make some more phone calls.

I have to ask. You have a ST why are you looking for a RT mirror?

Traded the ST in for a 2014 RT-L. What pictures I have are in to large a format for changing my sig picture. I need to reset my camara and clean the :f_spider: again to get the proper picture.

Do you have MS Paint on your computer?
You just need to downsize the pictures, to about 200 or so pixels in width... :thumbup:

a one way mirror would probably work if you can get the glass co to cut it

Issue I am finding is most mirror glass is coated on the back side and light will not shine through. Not sure if the mirror used in accessory mirrors has that type and I do not want to pay to find out it doesn't:gaah:

Looked at that, but it is 1/4" thick and was told that in the dark would look like standard glass (no mirror effect).
