question,... does anyone sell replacement glass for the mirrors? just the reflective part,... i dropped my bike yesterday and just the glass broke on my 2005 L/H mirror... looks like it's $130 for the inner guts of a mirror (88120-MCS-305) but i really only need the glass, and it looks like it is just two-sided foamy taped in.

thanks, jcc

I don't believe there's such a product. A few members have gone to glass shops and had flat pieces of mirror cut to fit. I don't know if anyone found someone able to do it with convex mirrored glass. Some have use flat glass and small convex mirrors of different types to give the "Closer than they appear" image.

Some with intact factory mirrors have added additional mirrors as well.
 
I took my broken mirror to a glass place and thy didn't think they could fit a piece in, so I went to an Auto Zone or some such place and bought a mirror for a car, and taped/glued it in, and shaped it with a Dremel. Worked well, but now I have an original bought from someone here. I do have two Chinese knock-offs that look original but they weigh noticeably less. You can have the "Frankenstein" mirror for the cost of postage or all of them for $50 plus postage.
