Yes Buddy!: Mirrors & Parts

later Fixed my mirror and probably saved $100! Fits perfectly. It was a little tricky, but that's how the mirror was designed. I had to push like crazy. Line everything up correctly and even use a heat gun to make the plastic a little more pliable. I can't fault the seller for not being a car mechanic. Regardless, everything is fixed and ready!

almost perfect - spare parts

perfect fit. Looks like a factory install. The only thing is that it doesn't go to extreme positions when I adjust it with a knob. However, I can only squeeze it lightly and it goes exactly where I need it. I've never had to move it that much while driving, so it wasn't a problem. Overall I am very satisfied and the price was great!

Pros
  • mirrors and spare parts
Cons
  • expensive

but my amazing brother looked at the coupe and offered it to me.

My passenger mirror was knocked over by a mad driver. I was out shopping and asked about the cost of a replacement and was shocked when I got the price in the $100-$125 range but my amazing brother looked at the coupe and suggested I should get a replacement from Revain to buy. It fits my 2012 Rav4 perfectly.

Pros
  • Wing Mirror Glass Replacement
Cons
  • Very Expensive

Looks pretty cool, like an exploded star.

I have a 2012 Toyota RAV4 and the mirror is identical to the original. The problem is how to attach it to the mechanism. The instructions say to apply slow and steady pressure to the center of the mirror, but after using the lube it won't fall into the center mount. Using a heat gun to heat the fittings and mirror didn't help, I increased the pressure in the center and when it snapped the mirror broke. It looks pretty cool, like a star twinkle, but you can't see anything.

Pros
  • Base plate included
Cons
  • Strap

Much better than paying dealer prices

I bought this mirror to replace one that has cracked out and broken. Initially I had a lot of trouble installing it myself (I don't usually work on my machine). I re-read the instructions and found that 1. the mounting posts in the car should go into the mirror housing first, not the back of the mirror panel 2. using a blow dryer should help. I'm not a very strong person and before using the hair dryer to heat the mounting pins I could NOT get them to snap into place. I was afraid that I would…

Good price but not perfect

A motorcyclist who was clearly having a bad day (or life) in LA was doing 80-85mph. My wife signaled to change lanes to the left and, no kidding, about 10 seconds later, an oncoming driver next to us slowed down and smashed my wife's mirror. It was confusing and I was afraid that driver would have cost us hundreds of dollars in damage to the wired mirror. However, this relatively versatile interchangeable mirror saved the day. It was about twenty dollars so it wasn't bad at all. However, the…

Pros
  • OE quality, fit and function
