    Are these difficult to replace? If i went to a scrapyard now and just bought the mirror, would i be able to fit it myself(no experience) also would i get away with just duct taping it on :)

    Just three screws holding it on i believe, the inside cover pops off quite easy, might be worth putting a small about of silicon sealant around the seal just to be sure no wind or water gets in.

    hmm, thing is though, i am actually after knocking the entire unit off, I had a disagreement with a wall :)

    Just incase i cant screw it in, is duct tape a reasonable alternatave

    If you knocked the whole unit off you would have ripped the door off :)

    Wait ... did you just pull the wing mirror off another Corsa ?, if so, thats not the whole thing ! You need the part that has the three screw holes on it.

    Why did bloody opel not make cars with fold in wing mirrors ! Gah !
