Gutted for you mate.
If they were electric before, i would think it's just plug and play. so to speak.

Sorry to hear about that, Bud. Some people are just so jealous of what hardworking people are able to buy with their hard-earned cash.

i went to VX on the weekend and these are the prices i got

Mirrors 13153132 and 13153131 = £66.45 +Vat each so £132.90 for the pair +Vat

Switch unit 13228878 = £89.65 + Vat

Now the guy said it would take 1hr to do. I'm thinking this would take longer. Any he said 1 hour so thats at £85 +Vat

So that £307.55 + Vat i got it too
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So correct me if im wrong. This is what i would have to pay. (As stated above from another post)

[nurburgring boy]

for that price am going to get that so wee fannys cnt do that again its just sum piece of mind

Thats very expensive to say that when you get out of the car you could simply push the wing mirrors in, its a crazy idea but thought i would throw it out there, and youd save £300 to put to something else!
