LT Mirrors - replacement glass

I've done a search of the topics here but can't find a full answer. I recently bought a set of LT mirrors from someone on here, got them mounted and am well happy with them. Today i went out to the van and noticed that the glass in the passenger side (mine is a RHD van) has been smashed by someone. As the van was recently driven into (denting the rear bumper) while i was asleep, and someone has keyed all down one side, i think i have a problem with some local who has a vendetta against my van!! Lord help them if they start on any of my bikes :wink: :mrgreen:

Anyway, back to the topic in hand. Can anyone suggest where i might get some decent convex replacement glass for them? I've tried Euro Car Parts and Syncro Services which i found on here doing a search for LT glass, but couldn't find replacement glass on either site.

Alternatively, are there any other mirrors that people can recommend that will bolt onto the LT arms?

Thanks in advance.

Brilliant, thanks Aidan. Do you know if the glass is convex? I bought some standard T25 ones from JK last year and the glass was flat - useless!!

I followed your advice Aidan, and rang Europarts in Cardiff at 08.20 this morning. They weren't in stock, but they told me if i called down after 2.30 this afternoon they'd have one for me. And sure enough, at 2.45 this afternoon, i walked in and collected said mirror, for a few pence over £28 including the vat :mrgreen:

Thanks again dood :ok
