yeah my EB's mirror got a bottle smashed into it...a glass place charged $40 to shape and glue a new one over the top of the smashed one. it had to be glued over the top because i couldn't even get the glass out when it was completely shattered!

it would be cheaper to get a new aftermarket replacment should cost about 45 to 65 dollars. i wouldn't f@rt a** around with getting a glass replaced but it is upto you. although me old man got one replace 18 or months ago cost him 20 dollars.
