98 CRV Passenger side Mirror replacement?

[Dale McMillan]

Hello,

My wife had the mis-fortune of having some nob smash the passenger side mirror in a parking lot. The plastic housing smashed. I was wondering if anyone would know the approximate replacement cost of the mirror, where I could order the part (in Canada?), and if a non-mechanical retard like myself can change this mirror (it is a power mirror too if this makes a difference).

I am not very mechanical.

Thanks for any and all help.

Hi Dale,

I'm in the same boat - looking for a gold passenger side mirror for a '99 with the EX package. If you come across any leads on where to find one in Canada, I'd really appreciate any tips.

thanks,

Hi Jeff,

We ordered the part from "Majestic Honda" which is actually in the US. The dealership wanted $360 just for the mirror. It is $164 US from majestic.

I still have no idea how to install it?

Hi Dale,

I managed to get a silver one off a 2001 from the local autowrecker. Turns out it's the same mirror from '97-'01 with the only diff between the LX and EX being that the EX is colour-coded. A local autobody shop said they will paint it to match for an extra $50.

Here's some instructions I found - looks pretty straightforward. Good luck!
