I've search thru the forums looking for help finding a replacement Drivers Side Mirror or just the heater so that I can melt the frost that builds up on the mirrors here in the New England winters. :( Does any one know where I can order and replace myself, the Drivers Side Mirror or just replace the heater of said mirror? Thanks to all who read and or help.

John

ps. 126K miles and going strong!!

The heating loop is on the reverse side of the mirror which means the mirror glass must be replaced. Check Borton Volvo or FCP Groton for replacement parts. I’ve also seen side door mirrors come up for bidding on ebay every now and again.

You can find instructions on how to remove the glass on Borton's website.
