We were driving back from a lovely day out at Chatsworth Park in Derbyshire yesterday. As we passed through Sheffield, a bus driver coming the other way didnt move over far enough and clipped our offside mirror smashing it to pieces.....
The mirror is a large type (A class) but does seem to be a generic one rather than Dethleffs-specific. Does anyone know where I might get one other than resorting to a Dethleffs dealer? Wording on the back says:
I cracked my Mekra cover to the mirror recently, she managed to get me another... it was £29 all in.
She also does do Chinese copies which are a lot cheaper... around a £5 for the cover. The only downer is the clip might not be in the same place to marry to a Mekra mirror.
If like you though, your mirror has gone for it, you can replace with Chinese mirror and cover assemby. Don't quote me, but a basic mirror is around £50.... The Mekra version from the dealers cost £00's
Sharon will have what you need, and I got mine next day.

PS your mirrors are probably the same as mine Adria Vision I SG707 and various Hymers, Burstners etc.
PPS don't bother looking on their website, as you won't find what you want, just have the code numbers to hand.
Thanks very much for that-I have sent them an email.
The glass is completely shattered and the back severely cracked, so I'm pretty sure it needs a complete head. It's heated too....
Replace it with the whole Chinese back and main mirror... I would also order a spare [or 2 depending on driving style ] of the backing covers, as delivery is dearer than the cover!
Sharon was indeed very helpful. A genuine mirror would be £86.50 plus vat and carriage.
I'm having a direct replacement copy for £35.37 all included!
(Happy bunny-thanks Wilse!!)
We also lost a mirror in Deven ( thankyou white van man )
Replacement mirror from Lowhams was £108 and it took 4 weeks for it to come from Dethleff being a left hand drive van I needed a mirror asp so I ordered a 24 volt mirror from A1 Mirrors next day delivery cost £29 ish , it works fine but it just takes longer to heat up with it being a 24 volt mirror but it’s ok for a back up mirror.
You can also get the unheated mirror for £21 ideal as a back up mirror
