My auto dimming rearview mirror looks like a fish bowl, lots of bubbles.. I am assuming that a seal for the liquid has gone bad and is un-repairable. Atlantic British list a replacement for 260.00, are there any cheaper alternatives? I would really rather spend the money on something else.

Thanks
Jeff

Get a part number and get a hold of Nathan Crabtree.

If you have a Disco II, I can get you a part number

Had the same thing happen to my 90 rangie and happened to stumble upon the fact that the mirror is a GM unit. I was looking to get one off an Expedition and as I was walking towards that part of the salvage yard I noticed a late model Cadillac mirror had the same connectors on it. Voila! Got it for $25. Slipped it on and plugged it in. Works great.

Good tips, thanks guys. I will try the salvage yard route. I had'nt considered that thinking I would not find a Disco. Cadillac huh? Maybe that explains why I look so old in the mirror!

Although my mirror has gone bad as well, I would keep it if I could just figure-out how to drain that fluid out of the mirror. Since the windows are tinted, I have not need for a darker mirror.
Any ideas on how to drain-ou the fluid?
