Replacement plastic for side mirror?


Recommended Posts

Posted

So, my wife managed to hit the drivers side mirror of my two month old truck on our garage door frame. Is this piece of black plastic easy to replace? What would the part number be and where might I find one? It's a '17 Denali 1500.

Thanks guys.a8eb133471493c5d42411dd47665df65.jpg

I don't believe there is a service part for this. The mirror comes complete when it's ordered, so there's isn't even a part number available for this. I'll see what I can scrape up at my dealer for you when I get to work Monday.

I would assume you need the dl3 housing because of the lamp on the bottom of the mirror. eBay for a broken mirror would probably be the cheapest.

I found one on eBay a few months ago. Not ready to find but if you look hard enough you cab find one. Also a pain to swap out. I'll add pictures when I get home to help you out.

PM just sent.

 

Awesome color by the way. Sorry about the mishap.

Just use some trim restorer on it. You'll hardly see it. Use some solution finish or even some wipe new coating on it. That is pretty minor to replace the whole thing

I'm not sure you meant minor to replace but I like your suggestion to try and restore the finish.

I think he meant it's too minor of a scratch to warrant replacing the whole mirror. I'd probably want to replace it too, but that's the OCD in me. Worth trying to restore it for sure though and see what it looks like.

Thanks for the responses guys! Yeah, if the truck wasn't so new I'd probably just touch it up, but it's my first ever new vehicle and it really burns my ass...

If your mirror was not a DL3, I would have gotten you taken care of.

This is a DL8 mirror and know the feeling. I was too lazy to get a blow dryer to heat up the stick on mirror and broke the glass trying to remove it. Since this was (what appears to be) a total loss, I started tearing it open. It seems that the housing is two parts, clam shelled together. I'll take a look at it tomorrow. If it separates easy and you can you it, its yours.

Wow, that's so incredibly kind! Yeah, I have no idea how the different mirror models vary, or which is which, but would sure like to give that a try [emoji106]

Yeah I did mean it's too minor of a scratch to warrant replacing. That probably would've been a great place use a comma or something to be more clear, but I understand the OP's feelings because I scuffed the bottom valence plastics on my truck when it was a couple months old and I felt the same way. That's also how I know the plastic treatment works! [emoji1303]

Before you go through a replacement, take a soft scotch brite pad and spray a little Wd-40 on the textured plastic and rub slightly back and forth in a straight line. That's what I do at my job to alleviate some of the scratches in textured plastic.
