The accessories are great to have, but they go wrong it's a big hunt for parts ... Someone broke off one of my electric mirrors on the GLT a few years back (probably while driving past) and I was glad to have a spare LHD one ready in the old parts stash. If it happens again, it's back to manual for ...
Thanks Tom, will check that out - was it the 300 Mania FB page ? The only ones I have seen are NOS items which are outwith my budget, a good used set would be ideal.
