Right mirror (driver's side)
Unfortunatley, it's quite hard to come by a Renault R14, or even it's mirrors. Mine is broken on the driver's side.
Does anyone have a secret stash of these? Or am I doomed to visit a specialist to recreate the mirror for me?
Thanks.

Re: Right mirror (driver's side)
does it have to be a renault one?
there are lots of nicer more modern mirrors about that will fit the mirror caps.
I have m3 ones on mine, although there are plenty of better ones now.

Will they fit, or do they need some cutting to fit?
In that case, the whole mirror-problem will get a lot easier

If you still want a R14 mirror, just place an ad on Marktplaats. I did it for Paul and soon got a response from a breaker yard in Groningen. There are still R14's out there!

this is something like I got.
just drill a couple of holes in the mirror caps and thats it.
At £20 a pair you can always throw them if you don't like them.

Re: Right mirror (driver's side)
I placed a request on Marktplaats. It's worth a try.
Otherwise, the M3 mirrors don't look too bad, but I think I prefer the Renault ones.
Thanks for the help gentlemen.

Thanks for showing me the example, Manifold.
But Hans's advice was a top tip. I already got a reply, and a set of 2 new R14 mirrors is coming my way
