I need a passenger side rear view mirror and fog lamp for my 2003 MV. Anyone have these taking up space in your garage and willing to part with them to make another Eurovan whole again?

I bought my right side replacement fog light for $55 from busdepot.com
You could also call the yard in the HOARD post and see what she would want to ship you both parts |

| If it's just the glass you can bring your old mirror to a glass shop and they can replace it..but you need the housing, and heated part won't work.also the auto parts might not work either.I have a parts van but it's broken (mirror) I just used driver's side on mine after a mirror to mirror crash.. ruined the other guys pride and joy mirror (2012) Ford ranger...mine only cracked the glass...Good luck Bill in Puerto Rico |

We sell replacement glass that DOES work with the heat and electric functions, and also complete mirrors.

So why are the 2 mirrors different shapes.

| I think it's so you can see the ground better on pax side but who knows??? Splitties had the option to turn them either way, on the elephant ear mirrors.. Bill in Puerto Rico thinking about all the busses I had but never a Vanagan (yet) I loved all 15 of them. |

What is the function. Taller mirror on the passenger side so you can see the ground? Wider mirror on the drive to cover the blind spot?
Why would I need to see the ground better. Driver side has more blind spot due to the smaller angle which you can see?
