Default Mirror fix

So some idiot parked to close to my blazer and clipped my mirror. Luckily the glass itself is undamaged but they ripped the back cover clean off. So I start looking at replacements and notice a common complaint is that the replacements vibrate unlike the originals. So my question is, would I be able to just replace the cover?

And yeah, I'm pretty ticked off about the situation.

Here is my mirror..

Grrr

The best thing would probably be a used one from a junkyard. I've never seen just that broken part for sale separately.

I would just look for a used one, easy to swap and cheap at a yard.


But to be "that guy", I wouldve parked close to you without causing damage, for not parking in your "lines"... 😇
