Well, I let my girlfriend take my 330Ci for the day so she could get used to it (she's planning on buying one in December), and not more than 2 hours after I let her take it, she calls me from her cell stating she "brushed" the passenger side view mirror against a post and the shell covering came off. Now I'm pissed off because the car is only 4 months old without a scratch on it, and the moment I let anyone drive it, look what happens. :banghead
So, she brings the car back to me, and luckily, none of the pegs are broken from the covering, so I try to just pop it back in, but it won't grab. I see all four slots where the pegs are supposed to join the mirror housing, and when I line them up, they enter just fine, but none are "snapping" into place. Is there a trick to getting the cover/shell back onto the mirror housing?
I really don't want to take this to the dealer and be charged $150+ just to get the cover back on, but I have been trying for over 2 hours now with no luck.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks,
