Gday all, I have an issue with the front doors, primarily the front left that i need to rectify.

The power mirror has almost fallen off and when i removed the plastic on the inside to expose the bolts to remove the mirror I found a chunky wad of rust.

The mirror is olnly holding on by the paint I think lol so I need to repair or hopefully replace if possible. I havent been able to remove the doortrim to look in there but Im thinking that it is just a guide rail that I should be able to get at my local wreckers.

Anyone got a piccie?? I looked in the manual but it only shows the window regulator and nothing for the window glass guide rails.

yeah I was going to do that but I just wanted to know if it was a replaceable guide rail (like on the rear doors) or if that bit where the mirror bolts up is a part of the actual door.

On most cars I have worked on they have been removable but I havent done a magna before lol

The threads that the mirror bolt onto are part of the door and not replaceable

Where in Qld are you, Gaspa? There are some wreckers in SW Brissy that regularly do "$50 all you can carry" days (usually public holidays), and their normal pricing is pretty good now, I think they just want to get rid of most of the stuff. Try giving the "ABC" chain of wreckers a call, Wacol's always cheap, dunno about Oxley or the west-Ipswich (area) one. Plenty of 2nd gens of assorted colours.
