| Wing mirror broken - help! Left the Fabia parked up the other night and came back to find the passenger side mirror hanging off! Some kind soul had given it a good smack! So after taking the mirror to pieces I was pleased to find the damage limited to a retaining washer (holds a spring in place on a spindle to give allow the mirrror to fold) Fortunately no other damage whatsoever... "Great" I thought until I visit my Skoda parts department - only to be told that its not a spare part and the whole mirror assembly has to be bought! I am not amused at over £100 for what is down to a broken washer!  Ok I can get the same part from Butts at around half the price, but this is crazy! I have checked my copy of ETKA too and the part is not listed there either! Anyone else had this happen and got round it without forking out for a whole new assembly? Cheers.
