Broken Closet Mirror

Finished a great weekend trip with some buddies of mine, and as one of them went to "help" get a case I'd left in the rear bath he tripped and hit the rear closet, breaking the mirror. (He survived mostly unscathed.)

Has anyone ordered a replacement from FR or made a replacement local? Obviously local can replace but it won't match the etching.

Thanks in advance,

Gottawonder

It took three tries to get the right on from the factory.

While they did get it right on the third try (4 months) even after several pictures and measurement's from myself and the dealer.

If you want it quick and right the first time go to a local glass dealer.

JMO!

If I recall it was around $700.00 that was a complete mirror and frame. They didn't want to ship just the mirror.

I waited 4 months!

Would have paid more to get it sooner.

Not necessarily, Ford Idaho does have a Berkshire and I would be surprised if his mirror is as big as ours. Although $700 is a bit much.
