I have tried the search function but to no avail.... I very slowly and only for a moment 'grazed' my near side mirror on a wall this pm. Hopefully the white paint will polish out but the mirror assembly no longer fits neatly into the housing. There is a small gap to the outside, enough for rain to enter!
I have tried manipulating the mirror and housing but cannot get them to fit correctly. The car is new to me and I wonder if this was a fault I had not noticed? Anyway bottom line is does anyone have any tips as to how to fix it, is there a hidden fixing that might be damaged? How do I remove the mirror assembly to check?

Thanks Ad.....I will try but suspect relatively small gap between mirror assembly and housing will not show up well in a pic. If you look at the vid the older version has a curved joint between mirror housing and mirror assembly. This is were the gap is... Upgraded to an ex demo, 7 mth old, Rimini Red/Ebony Napoli Auto HSE on 28th Jan 2011, added roof rails, mudflaps and side strips.
