It's not just mirror,but somebody broke and stole whole ORVM's.

Really sad to hear about the incident. Aren't your OVRM's the power type (electronically adjustable)? Haven't heard of other OVRM brands in India,but heard of them abroad.

Can't you claim insurance for these things.

Insurance is 50% on plastic and fiber parts,he still would end up paying 5 grand.

A moron driving an Indica just took out my right OVRM today. Just the mirror fell off.. So frustrated with the idiots driving on road, that I didnt even bother to stop and check if the mirror can be retrieved. Probably some other idiot would have probably run over me and the mirror.

Anyway, everything else on the OVRM is in working condition.. including the motor. Any idea where in Pune, can I get just the mirror or a mirror cut to the same size. The left OVRM got changed in Chennai.

PS: I know what Maruti A.S.S is gonna say - "We need to replace the whole thing"... yeah.. right!

buddy, you should have attempted to pick up the fallen piece. the mirror if broken can be made out at local guys. that plastic holder has slots in it which gets locked into the motor assembly. (have doubts if all are interchangeable) contact those small shop guys who repair mirrors and plastics. he will get one from used market place. in Mumbai its Kurla market.

Aren't the mirror curvatures and all specific to the different cars? So then don't u need a different sort for every car?

A friend of mine lost a set of ORVM's of his lancer. They were very expensive if taken from A.S.S. We went to Kashmere gate market. There are shops which sell stolen mirrors and parts. Painted/unpainted all is there. We got a set for 650 Rs and with matching color too.
Try that since you are from delhi.

spadival · 13th February 2008, 11:26

oh well.. Didn't want to risk stopping there as its a busy road. I'll probably get one fixed when I come down to Mumbai.

There are 'local' aftermarket brands who have ORVMs for Maruti Cars. The fit and finish is fine, but the mirror is of no use. Maybe you can buy the ORVMs from outside and get the mirrors from Maruti.

a moron in an indica took away mine too a few months back... oh it seems that they do not like baleno's orvms. I had the plastic piece but the mirror got cracked. So i made it out at Mullick Bazaar in Kolkata.

Have you got them replaced. Spare parts thread says the price for just the mirror (not the assembly) is Rs 1,500.

I feel like a blind man without them though.. So used to it that I cant even reverse properly into my parking space at home.

Do you get the mirror without the assembly?
