It was a -goodwill gesture- on the part of the maker Magna Donnly

They were sending replacements if yours has a bubble look to the edges of it, thats
an internal mirror failure.

Did you check with them on the phone?

Search the huge rearview mirror thread and find the email address for Dani at Magna Donnelly. I noticed the "bubble" on my 99 TL on Tuesday morning on my way to the office, emailed Dani when I got there, and they shipped out a new mirror that morning. I got it on Thursday afternoon, and installed it that evening! Just ask them, bro. They will take care of you.

She will. It took less than three hours from the time I first emailed to have my FedEx tracking number. It arrived two days later.

Good News!

Be sure to check out the "How to Install" tips here:

And be careful not to apply too much force so you don't crack your windshield.
