Can anyone tell me approximately how much the glass for a driver's side mirror for a 900SE costs in the UK? I assume that the glass in British-specification mirrors is convex, and I would like to substitute a convex mirror for my present mirror, which has flat U.S.-specification glass. (On U.S. cars only the passenger-side external mirror is convex. My car doesn't have enough adjustment to eliminate the driver's side blind spot that exists with a flat-glass mirror.)
