Default Lost 15¢ mirror guide, dealer wants $120 [2008 C70]





Where to get this little plastic guide that attaches to back of the side mirror? Volvo sells only the complete mirror assembly for $120 (mirror, plastic housing & 2 guides). Mirror was bumped in the garage and it fell off but lost one guide, can’t find it anywhere. Want to reattach. Tried salvage yards, no Volvos in St Louis. Tried a 3D printing place but wanted an hour technical engineering for the computer.$$$ Ideas?

Volvo does not sell that part by itself - so the only option is a used one from another mirror.

Where to get a mirror with these attachments? Ebay is selling only the mirror, these pieces are not included.

You could try someone like Voluparts.com in Atlanta 404-352-3402

The white tabs are included with a new part - (from Volvo) the glass is bonded to a plastic backing and white tabs are attached.

you can also try a recycle yard search using car-part.com. Erie Vo Vo is a Volvo specialist (upstate NY) who should have some C70s.
