Rear view mirror replacement suggestions?

Hi all,

My rear view mirror, like almost everyone else's, has leaked, and I'm looking into buying a replacement. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good replacement, or are they all pretty much the same (Cheap ebay ones, all the way up to the more expensive ones)?

Thanks

buy it from acura it's under a bill and it's been remanufactured by a different company so it's likely not going to piss itself again.

i replaced mine cause the diming function just broke period altogether. literally a 5 min install

An acura dealer in Arizona is selling replacement mirrors on ebay for $80.80 plus $8 shipping. Genuine Honda part and a Quick install. Got mine in two days after I bought it now.

I think they are referring to the bubble that forms in the liquid insde the mirror. Mine was huge and made it difficult to see out of.

HAHAAH 87.50 is the price at the DLR dude it's not a deal at all..

acura changed their price from like 300ish cause they WERE made by a different manufacturer. since SO many people needed replacements and bitched about the price acura sourced another company to make it actually affordable.

I know this cause i had to ask MY dealer cause i WAS expecting a 300$ bill or so. then found out it was ACTUALLY a reasonable price.

so no need to jump the gun... price aint going up

Best price I got from my dealer was $94.50 plus 7.3% sales tax. That was after they had originally quoted me $111.00 plus tax. You must have a good conection or live in a more competitive market. We only have one acura dealer here.
