Lovely day out in Henley, sun shinning pub lunch drive home feeling "it doesn't get better".  For no reason other than a "spoiler" nearside wing mirror glass drops out and smashes!!!  Look on the web. Can get: complete mirror assembly mirror on stalk but no replacement glass. See photo : I measure at 4" Anybody got a source guaranteed to fit! regards Ian

Halfords used to sell replacement mirror glasses of various sizes, don't know if they still do.

Why did it fall out.
If you don't find out then the next one might do the same.

That rimless design looks very much like the Librands mirror. Just been in the garage and they measure 4in across.
I had the same issue with glass falling out when the adhesive failed. Librands were excellent and sent a complete mirror replacement FOC.
Alternatively, you could try a local glazier who could cut a replacement glass.

It might help to see the other side & identify the supplier.

If you don't find out then the next one might do the same. Absolutely no idea. 30,000 miles OK. Did not even hit a bump. Just driving along and it fell out. I assume adhesive dried out or something. Just sent the photo to Librands. Will see what they say. Fingers grossed they do the same as Petemog

Fingers grossed they do the same as Petemog Librands sending me complimentary mirror and stem and I must send mine to them so they can understand what caused the failure. REEEESULT!

Great result and well done to Librands. As with most Morgan specialists, I have always found them excellent to deal with.
