Rear view mirror exploded... where can I get a replacement cheap?
So the auto-dimming feature stopped working some time ago, but I left the car in a hot city over this last weekend, and it looks like it imploded. It's mostly yellow now, with an oval of normal colored mirror material, but everything looks double in it. It's become totally useless.
Any idea what new ones cost, where I can get a cheap(er) one, or even if a junk yard would be a good option?
thanks,
reza

To test it's function
Automatic day/night rearview mirror, testing function .The function test is performed with the rearview mirror installed and the ignition on. The transmission selector lever must not be in the reverse position. - Cover photosensor on front of mirror (tape)- Use light source (flashlight) to direct light onto photosensor on rear of mirror. The rearview mirror must darken within a few seconds.
