lots of info on this if you search (m)...
people have gone with the blindspot mirror glass from stratmosphere and have really liked it. if you have the small passenger size mirror however (which i think you do) i dont believe there is a blindspot mirror available. you can also pick up the mirror glass from the dealer or maybe check the classifieds. its a pretty common problem. i changed mine twice.

I have only seen this sold at dealers. I paid $45 or so for my driver side mirror
now my passenger side is starting to rust a little, but I plan to hold out until it gets really bad before I replace it. I don't think you can go with the blindspot mirrors (listed for 99.5-01) and they are $139/pair.

Have you checked the fit of the later blindspot style on a 99.5?
I ordered a pair from ECS and they did not fit my 99.5, either side. They were a little more triangular in shape, so I ended up sending them back. Just want to make sure you don't have the same problem. Your website shows that the 00+ mirrors will fit a 99.5 which wasn't my experience. I can get a build date off of my car if you want it, and yes it does have a full size passenger mirror.
