Where to find the part?

Hi all,

Does anyone have a link to where the whole DS power fold wing mirror unit can be bought?

I am buying a freelander 2 but since I agreed to buy it a bin lorry took the DS wing mirror out. Happy to replace it myself but cant seem to find anywhere on line to buy the unit?

Cheers!

Site Sponsors, Duckworths, cheaper in the long run, there are a few varieties, you wouldn't be the first to buy one and find it is different to what you have, then have to get another one.

Thanks for this useful thread. Passenger interior door handle stopped working over Christmas, I've just investigated and it was just the cable ,which had popped off the clips on the back of the handle, clipped it back on and seems ok now. Presumably heavey handed kids- don't know where they get that from.
Anyway thanks to clear instructions even I manaaged to remove and replace door trim with no damage. 2007 Freelander 2 2.2TD4 HSE manual (Hers)

Its about time they did away with door mirrors and replaced them with a camera system with a small screen on the inside where the mirror normally mounts, dont you think??

Due to some cock in a Mercedes Vito, too busy on his phone and too few brain cells to place his vehicle properly through a gap now have a driver side door mirror with a bust and cracked upper shroud. Everything else is fine, glass, folding, adjustment, heating, puddle light etc.

Is it possible to buy and replace just the shroud or is it really a complete mirror? Covers on sale seem to go over an existing sound but ratty shroud. This isn't suitable solution.

Dan from Duckworths did a great job supplying mirror. Fitting was straightforward - the longest screw was the one under the door release handle.

Forgot to update the thread. Dan from Duckworths * very helpful, sorted me out prompt delivery, and it's a piece of cake to fit. Additional plus point it gets rid of that tiny white scrape mark from squeezing up the side alley to the car park behind the best local fish and chip shop. Long screw on mine was bottom of door pull.

* You know when you're typing something on your phone, and the auto (in)correct feature comes up with a totally inappropriate suggestion? Usually hilarious, sometimes so accurate that it's almost Freudian? I'll not write what it comes up with for Duckworths, highly libellous and inaccurate to boot. Suffice to say the first syllable does indeed begin with F, and the second syllable is "wits." How wrong can it be? Rolling with laughter

clearly the word used to replace Duckworths in your phones dictionary is one you use fairly frequently as it must have been entered manually (unless the phone manufacturer pre-empted your need for the phrase Laughing )

Off topic, trouble is you could be right, but it comes up with all sorts of word that don't use, including that one alluded to above, plus some words that are new to me. Clearly some things do get added to the dictionary, typically scientific or technical terms, and it does require use of said word several times before it heads the auto (in)correct list, but it certainly does appear to pick up words that others have used, eg when quoting a post by another as it assumes you've also written that content.
