    Hello Everyone (again), right then.

    I now in my hands have a trusty 207 wing mirror - strange to have to
    replace the whole unit just to fix a bit of plastic - but who am i to
    suggest that peugout are mad.....

    Anyway, bought it, and was told that its easy to fit, only three
    screws, and voila the jobs a goodun' and only an idjit' could mess it
    up.

    Right - im that Idjit.

    Just out of curiosity, where are the screws?

    And is it really reasy to do, or am i asking for trouble by attempting
    this myself?

    And once im done, anyone want a used 207 mirror with no capping?

    And i dont mind being called an idiot - im happy to admit that while i
    can watercool computers down, while squeezing every last mhz out of
    their components, car's are a mystery to me!

    Im a Car repair virgin! and if i can save £100 worth of fitting by
    having ago, what have i lost, apart from self respect when i fail
    miserably!

    Ta!

    Don't know the 207 but if it's anything like the Ford Fiesta I used to
    have then you'll have to take off the interior door panel to get at the
    screws. Took me an hour to get that panel off just to undo 2 screws..!
