Well actually no. I went out to my car today and seen that some stupid ass has either hit the cover for the driver side mirror with the passanger side door of an SUV or I have either pissed someone off. Anyway this may be a stupid question but have you gotten yours fixed yet? Where did you get the cover for the mirror? How much did you pay for it?

Thanks

Coupe or sedan?

Here's a tutorial for the sedan. Someone else can probably help you with a coupe setup.

yeah the glass didnt' break the clips inside the cover is what was damaged and snaped so the cover has to be replaced. It is a Si coupe. I was wondering where i could find and purchase the cover for my driver side mirror.

Anyway thanks for the help. I talked to the Honda dealer and the cover is like $17 and just snap-on so I am just going to buy one, but thank you for the help.

Update on the side mirror replacement

I had to order a whole side mirror for the coupe Si. I ordered it from a local honda dealer. the factory mirror is $157. It's a simple process first remove the inside cover piece on the inside of the window. there are three small 7mm screws to remove. After removing the screws make sure you have unhooked the wire connector to the mirror, and pull the mirror off with ease from the outside.
