Anyone know much about Vauxhall Vectras?
Not a car that folk tend to know much about because they are so ordinary but
I need a N/S door mirror for a pre-facelift Vectra, does anyone know if the mirrors are different on the later cars or are they the same? Facelift was
in about 1998/99.
There's a few on Ebay that are the right colour but are for later cars.
Cheers for any help, Kev.

You could try these peeps:
Clicky
They were dead helpful when I was looking around for some bits. Failing that, it's a trip to your nearest scrappy.
Or you could try something like partsgateway.co.uk, where you fill in the details and they forward them to all local breakers.
Hope you get one,
Francis.

Thanks folks, I'll have a look at that link.
I dont really want to take the time to go to the scrappy as it'll mean a bit of travelling, I need all the free time I can get during daylight
hours to get the jobs stopping me from building a locost done!
Still, it'll learn me to de-ice my mirrors & not wipe the mirror from my workmate's motor while parking my van in future!

Send an e-mail to Jeremy Clarkson, he likes Vectras

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

His does most of this stuff!
I may just get new one, I'd already seen them for about £20 on Ebay & his painted cover may just fit on anyway.
