Disaster - rear view mirror leaked!

Jonnymaz · 20-07-2013, 10:53 PM

Came to the car today and wondered what had blistered the paint on the console in the centre, turns out the heat had caused the dreaded rear view mirror leak

I have looked back over some threads and seems to be a common problem, what are the current options? Is it still either send to US for repair or get the swap from the original supplying company? What are people doing?

Also, what is best to sort the trim out, it's ruined!!!

Can it be removed, rubbed down and resprayed? Seems to be only the paint that has been damaged. If so, anyone know where to get the interior grey paint?

Thanks for any tips.
