Subject:Beware of Vanagon mirror problem
From:Kenneth Wilford
Date:Wed, 1 Mar 2006 10:08:40 -0500

If you are getting your non-power mirrors from the dealer (like I do) double
check them before you take them home.  I have been getting a rash of wrong
mirrors in the box.  In other words, you have the part number for the
passenger side mirror on the box and inside is the driver's side mirror.  I
would say almost 50% of the mirrors I have been getting for passenger side
have been misboxed!  It would not be such a big deal except it seems the
passenger side mirrors are harder to get at the moment (they take longer to
come in) and they are also about $20 more than the driver's side for some
reason.  So you could be not just getting the wrong side but charged extra
as well!  Just wanted to make folks aware.

Thanks,
Ken Wilford
