My driver side mirror got side swiped last night on the highway. Is was pushed forward and came/broke off base. Does anyone have a diagram. Trying to determine if I need a new mirror or just a new bracket. Electrically the mirror still works fine.

You might have more luck in the 120 series forum. You probably need a new side mirror assembly. You could try mounting it back on there and shooting some screws in it, but it will probably fall apart at the first car wash. Probably can find a salvage one pretty easy.

I've had this happen on my wife's car when she accidentally backed into the trashcan on the curb and it pushed the side view mirror up and off. Broke the mount. I decided to fix it with plastic epoxy and it's worked like a charm for the last year. No issue. The epoxy is stronger than the plastic substrate and if it were to break again, it won't be at the glue joint for sure.
