The windshield guy is totally a stand-up guy and is going to pay for the part and my mechanic’s time to install the new part. The problem, however, is finding the part. The two of them figured out that the prism (inside the rear view mirror) was damaged somehow, but BMW dealerships in the area will only sell the part as as package that includes a new rearview and the BMW glass.
All 3 of us have scoured all the places we can think of online to no avail. At this point, I’m willing to buy a new rearview to get the matter addressed. Does anyone here have connections that can get the part for me, or have thoughts on where else to search?
Thanks in advance,
Fuz
