Someone kindly broke my wing mirror on my 1998 Golf Cabriolet SE.

It is hanging on by the wires- do I need to replace the whole thing or can I just replace the bracket that has snapped?

And is this a complicated job I should pay someone to do or could I do it myself- I really have no experience of messing with cars at all but I'd be willing to give it a go at the weekend.

I don't even know how to get the door card off- I saw the tutorial here http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=961163 but this is nothing like my door so no good to me

I saw a whole new mirror here http://www.wingmirrorman.co.uk/golfmk4.html but can I reuse my tinted mirror on the existing (broken&hanging off) mirror if I have to go and replace the whole thing?

Any help is seriously appreciated

Thanks
Maria
