Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Ebay or your local scrap breakers yard.
    Failing that BMW!

    Is glass broken or has heating of glass stopped functioning? If the latter applies and you want to restore the heating of the mirror, you will probably have to buy a new glass and not a used one.

    What year BMW? Coupe or saloon? Breakers yard would be best, other options will need painting....

    popular car, should be plenty in breakers yards imo rather than a (more than likely) non OEM part from eBay.

    Discussion was not titled correctly by OP.

    OP appears to be looking for a wing mirror glass for a 3 series.

    Most of the posts so far assume that OP wants an entire wing mirror unit.

    Depending on what is wrong with wing mirror glass to be replaced, buying a cheapo, used wing mirror will not necessarily be the best solution because the heating element will more than likely not work or else it will be past its prime.
