A few days ago, I very lightly bumped into the passenger side outside mirror while walking by it in the garage. Evidently the hook or whatever that holds the mirror to some sort of spring has broken off. The piece dropped on the floor but now the mirror will just flop around. No other damage.
Does the entire mirror assembly have to be replaced or can just the mounting plate be replaced? I've thought about removing the mirror and seeing if someone can weld broken part back to the plate. There are four screws. Can the mirror be removed by taking these screws out, or will this require removal of the interior door panel?
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
