Where to buy mirror Glass
Hello folks, I am in need of a replacement mirror glass for my 2013 reg HSE Lux.... Passenger side.
SWMBO managed to clout a parked van and knock the glass out, which has of course shattered.
Looked at Rimmer Bros, however I am reluctant to use them as they get nothing but bad press from the Triumph fraternity, of who I am also a member.....
Thanks

Nice. I wanted an S when I was buying (1988!). I was particularly after an Inka Yellow one.
The guy had mine advertised as a 'Green Triumph 2000' turned out it was a 2.5Pi, with a factory fit full length Webasto roof. He had no idea what it was! I've had it ever since.Richard

It is a bargain in my opinion - the supplied unit is EXACTLY the same as the genuine LR one, apart from the logo has been burnt off the plastic backing.
Everything else identical to the genuine LR item.

Sounds like you got a bargain.
My Grandad bought mine new in 1976, traded his carmine red 2000TC in for it.... I inherited it when he passed away
Its honeysuckle in colour, not every ones cup of tea

That's really nice, to have a family owned car from new. Got any pictures? I like Honeysuckle, I think I'd have any of the factory colours tbh.Richard

I have to say I use Rimmers a lot and havent had any issues there I have ordered online and had items delivered, ordered over the phone and also in their location just outside Lincoln.
However I have been ordering LR parts, I can understand parts for classics can be a little more involved.Must stop buying shiny toys....
