Default Rear View Mirror Repair

The interesting urine colored shapes in the glass of my rear view mirror finally annoyed me enough that I pulled it out this morning and sent it off to Sybesma's electronics for repair. Its due to be delivered on Friday.
I will let you know how it turns out. They will rebuild the unit I sent them for $97 including return postage. They do not have rebuilt units for a 99 XK8 with the Auto Lights On at Dusk on the shelf.

I have used radar-mirror.com and they fixed my mirror with the auto-dimming feature. I used them because they fix your own mirror instead of replacing. They did an excellent job!

Mine was the same, and it is very nice when it function as it should.

Good to know there's an alternative to Sybesma at a similar cost.

Mirror Repair

The repair rather than exchange service would be a preferable option to me.
