Replacement glass (exterior mirror) source?

I was mucking around with my side mirrors (replacing the covers) and one of the mirrors cracked. Should have known better...but there it is. Can anyone point me to a source of just the glass piece? At least one that costs less than the $50 US

that seems to be the going rate...thanks! Dan

LKQ has lots of MINI parts - should be able to get it for less than $50 anyway!
There is also MazdaMINI recycling in Rancho Cordova, CA

Thanks Eric. MazdaMINI appears to be the same as Mazda & Mini Cooper Recycling and they have lots of broken Minis. Great address on "Dismantle Court". Will call them tomorrow. DD

Try a local glass shop. They can usually install a new mirror glass.

google 'automotive mirror glass'

and you'll find many places specializing in this very thing . . .

in one minute of playing I found two sources at $20 for a 2007 ...
