Replacement inserts for ST100 mirrors

When I bought my ST back both mirrors were broke. I thought without verifying and had some flat mirrors cut by a glass shop, They suck for me. I will change them back some day when the wife forgets that they cost 35 dollars a piece. The OEMs were not a ridiculous curve which my old fart memory passed off as flat. @*&$%#)(..........
 
i'm looking for a RH mirror insert. Had a flat one in there for the longest time, but it popped loose in my hand while installing a new filler piece. I figured before I just glue this one back in I'd see if the REAL ones are available. Poppa's Etsy site is no more. My local glass place won't touch it. Any other sources?

NOTE This is the glass insert only! If your mirror body is damaged, I can’t help you.
But, In my experience with this machine, the mirror bodies are somewhat bulletproof.

I love my ST 1100. But like all antique motorcycles, sourcing body parts can be an issue.
The first time I had to replace the left side mirror I searched for a year and then had to result to old stock new parts at a stiff premium. Like $120 + if you can find one!
Now on the second time around, I found a local manufacturer to cut the glass insert I needed and was able to get the job done for half the cost. My partners still have the template so now I am your source for ST 1100/Pan European replacement mirror Glass.
I have a left and a right-side side plate in stock. I can have as many as needed cut to order.
Installation is a snap.
First, dismount the mirror body from your machine and remove all broken glass.
Second heat the plastic portion of the mirror assembly with a hairdryer or a heat gun. Don’t use open flames.
Third, put four dime-sized dollops of two-part epoxy inside the plastic mirror assembly.
Fourth. Insert new glass and hold it in place with rubber bands. Let set overnight.
Fifth, remove the plastic shielding I shipped your new insert with and the rubber bands.
Sixth reinstall your repaired mirror.
Now go ride.

This is my Esty shop
U should clarify if the mirrors are flat or rounded like the oem’s.
 
The eBay ones (from CZECH Republic) say "spherical" so I assume not flat. We'll see when they arrive.
 
This gentleman has a few videos about the side mirror.
1- Ordering the side mirror: (at 4:00 minute mark)
2- Installing the mirror inside the mirror bracket:
 
I wouldn't let the mirror housing dangle from the wires; I remove the socket and set the housing aside.
 
My mirror is currently in transit. If the Houthis decide to blow up and sink the cargo ship with my mirror on it, then I guess I'll continue to fly blind in the right "eye." I rely on it more than I thought despite it being a plain flat mirror. Something was better than nothing.

And yes, if the plastic lanyard is missing from your mirror cover you can make one with a couple of zip ties. Not wise to let it hang from 20+ year old wires.
 
Just received my mirror today and it is indeed convex. Just need to snap it into the holder now.

FYI, I did pay an extra $6 for expedited shipping, $9 total. Def worth getting it faster versus late July that was estimated.

$60 total for a new mirror makes me quite happy.

Some use a heat gun to warm up the black surrounding plastic before inserting the glass.
 
Well, looks like they won't fit in the plastic as the curve is different. Damn.
That is disappointing. Any ideas? 1000011715.jpg
 
I suggest forgetting about snapping it in and instead using an RTV or silicone adhesive. Trim away enough edge material for the mirror to contact the plastic behind it.
 
I believe the mirror is still more flexible than what it seems and it will fit into the frame, the process is going to be very delicate and requires lots of patience and precision. A balance between warming up the frame and applying pressure enough to fit the mirror in.
Also, consulting a autobody glass shop could be beneficial.
