D40's have heated mirrors?
We used to have drivers forever breaking the truck mirrors because they could never reverse properly and our windscreen repairer just replaced them in 5 mins. They can't be that special even if they are heated but I don't think they are and doubt 1mm would make a difference.

You could always try importing heated mirrors from Canada and AFIK they are the same size etc. As to heated mirrors in a Navara mmmmm if so then your the first. AFIK its not even an option in the UK models only the D40 Frontiers in Canada .Even the US guys their heated mirrors from Canada .
Not heated but should fit

There was a link on the UK Navara forum of replacement glass for D40 mirrors.

I replaced the glass in the drivers side to a flat mirror instead of the convexed type, went down to the glaziers with a template they cut it and stuck it on with a bit of sikaflex all good now.

Tell you what, you can have the glass out of my mirrors, I hate the bloody convex stuff, too hard to judge gaps accurately. I can back pretty well using my side mirrors, down hills, up backwards, in between rails, but they bloody convex stuff is just too hard.

Not taking away from Nizzbits but seriously a glazier or windscreen place would surely want less than the $40 we used to pay for truck mirrors.
Niiiice, found an original convex mirror on ebay under $20 delivered. if it's in 1 piece when arrives.lol

Well Europe is where our trucks are built lol
\Next time I am in Nth America I am going to get the heated mirrors and see how they go
How hard was it pulling out the old glass?

Just checked, same guys do the heated one + backing plate, which I assume is what you need. The wiring may already be there.
The cracked one still looks pretty good so not done it yet. Got glass only del.
I have instructions how2 remove, but that's were this all started.
Anyhow can't be hard now its already broken. LOL.
Thanks anyway, it was your suggestion that started me lookn. Cheers!

I actually have my mirrors off the truck at the moment and can definataly say no wiring unfortunately lol
However I cant see it being a biggy. Just a lotof mucking around getting wiring through the pillars. the rest is easy enough.
