WANTED Side mirror panel in black

[szvook]

Need a new (or in new like condition) side mirror panel/triangle trim in black color, for the driver’s side.

Btw, is the material leather or not? Does not feel like leather to me, feels like leather-like textured plastic.

@svook,
Steve did you break off the attachment tabs?
I re-glued my broken tabs back on with superglue.

There’s a thread somewhere by gsxr about filling down the tabs a little to make them easier to get out without breaking them.

Yeah, but I lost the broken tab/clip.

Maybe the missing tab is in the bottom inside the door.

@500AMM I did see that writeup, but unfortunately the missing tab is lost.

OK, but to clarify what you are looking for; You need the drivers side cover for manual mirror adjustment?

The image in your first post is a passenger side cover for manual mirror adjustment - which I can't recall I've ever seen in a 036.

 

[szvook]

@500AMM Yes, need the drivers side, that is the one with the hole for the manual adjusting arm. I must have used a wrong image earlier. Good eyes, btw.

This is the right example, for the drivers side mirror panel.

Bump

I have one but the retaining clip is broken.

I have seen one that I removed from the junkyard with a broken clip that was replaced with butyl tape that looked pretty good while it was on the car.

Seems this would be a good choice for 3D printing reproduction. It can't be hard to recover. I have one staying put with DS tape, but I'd surely pay for a good one.
