Replacing wing mirror cover Scenic MK 3 DCI

Hi all, I recently tore the cover off my driver side wing mirror. It's currently taped together as all of the electrics still work but have been looking for a replacement. I have sourced a new replacement cover & also a second hand full wing mirror. I was hoping someone could advise me what would be the easiest to fit?

The cover, without a doubt.

It should just press-fit, but I'd be inclined to add a few spots of a PU-based adhesive like Tiger Seal or Seam Sealer just in case any of the clips on the cover or for that matter, the mirror housing itself have been damaged/weakened.

Fit it on a dry day when you won't be driving it until the next day (a small amount of masking tape to keep it located until the adhesive has cured) will ensure a strong, robust & durable bond.

HTH,

Paul

(needless to say, but if the cover needs painting, do this prior to fitting)

See how it lines up at the edges - if it's close, the housing is fine.

If the cover is in one piece, post a pic, because I might be able to advise a repair method without buying a new cover.
