Broken mirror

Postby bsnowden [OP] » Jan 28 2012, 2:57pm

Last night my wife and I went out to eat. We ran to best buy so I could buy her a CD. I parked next to a silverado 2004-2007 model year. Very nice truck it was a duramax had a stack in the bed and very clean.We walked in bought the CD and came right back out. The truck that was parked next to me was gone and my passenger side mirror was pushed in and the mirror was laying on the ground broken. This made me mad because there were no scratch marks on the back side of my mirror like someone clipped it with their car.To me it looks like someone pushed it in or slammed it in. The piece that holds the mirror in was cracked in half and hanging there. That is why I believe someone did it on purpose. So I guess this chevy owner doesn't really care about other peoples things.Waiting to hear back from the police hopefully they got his plates and caught him doing it on camera.

Good luck. I'll be damned if I'd have complimented his ride after that. You are a better man than me.

I cracked mine one night late trying to squeeze into my garage. Was it easy to replace? Does it come with the setup for the power mirrors
