Been there, done that. Check on E bay to see if you can find a used one.

My elderly mother destroyed the passenger side mirror on her 2011 Subaru Legacy before she quit driving. No damage to the body just the mirror. Found the exact part on car-part for $81 shipped. She was quoted over $500 by the stealer. Definitely worth a try.

My wife has driven THROUGH the garage door....3 times. First in the DTS we had, at that time, we had 2 doors and brick between them.....not anymore, just have a 17' wide door now, drove trough it when it was halfway up with the f150, got it fixed, did the same thing with her Expedition, this time I beat it flat and put it back up, she whines and cries about how it looks, and we have "insurance" blah blah blah, at this point she's lucky I give her a car to drive, she needs a tank, and she'd break that too....... rant mode off....... sorry.

Dude. No tank for her. She needs to be driving something substantially smaller than anything I might drive.

She is simply banned from MY Garage. If she wants to retaliate she can ban me from HER Kitchen .

LOL - My ex also drove through our garage door with the Expedition too. Somehow the trolley release for the opener got stuck in the roof rack, which released it and allowed the door to close about a foot, then she backed into that. To make it worse, this was literally 1 week after we had had the entire garage re-sided and the wood capped with vinyl. I called the guy that did it and he took pity on us and fixed it for $500. All the trim needed to be redone. No insurance claim. Oh and every corner of the Expedition had damage and both sides from getting too close to the edge of the garage door and scraping it down the side. My new wife knows her limitations and won't even attempt to park in the garage she just parks in the driveway. Is it sexist to say women can't drive? Or are we still pretending they can?

I strangely feel.....................better?

Hey how did you convert your 2 doors to 1? Did you do it yourself or have it done? I have 3 doors and want to combine 2 of them but wondering if I should do myself or not. Doesn't look terribly complicated.

It depends on the house, mine is brick, so there was a lintel across the top that had to come out, and a header installed. I would recommend jacks to hold the house up when removing these supporting features, in my case, we used a new Cadillac to remove them.

Shoot me your address, I'll have my wife swing by, she has got the demo part down pretty good, I just need to figure what car I want totaled out first....
