Advice needed - Stole mirror caps and mirrors

[cOlDFuSiOn]

Hi all,

Not sure if anyone can offer some advice or leads on parts.. Long story short our F30 LCI 318i's mirror caps and mirrors were stolen off the car this morning... :thumbdo:

Obviously Insurance claim will be looked at, but can I get parts from Breakers/etc and does the LCI and pre LCI have the same mirrors.. Any leads?

Interesting day this has been..

Thanks!!

What did you do?

I bought a new cap and support from BMW and sent them for paint this morning.

excess was to much, repair was cheaper..

Eish, sorry to hear buddy, give Bavarian Breakers in Wynberg a call on 0832586858, the mirror glass is the same on 1,3,4,6 series the last time I checked :thumbs:

Try S&I Autobody Parts and Accessories in PTA - they stock the mirror cover and glass

Thanks much for the advice. Will contact and check pricing. Seems like Insurance want a big excess.. As expected!

Appreciate guys will check out options! :thumbs:

Just checked the electronics the mechanisms all move etc so does not look like the casings are broken at least!!

Keep your boot locked, especially on older cars that need a key to lock the boot. My bros spare wheel got stolen out of the boot. The car was locked but he forgot to manually lock the boot. Unbelievable. :dunnoanymore:

I saw a pic where they stripped the front end of a Golf 7R in a parking lot - bumper, headlights and grille
