SIDE REAR-VIEW MIRROR · BRISBANE
Side Rear-View Mirror Replacement — Brisbane
“Side rear-view mirror” is one of three common names for the same exterior mirror — the one mounted on the door, not the one on your windscreen.
We replace the exterior side mirrors only. The interior rear-view mirror, mounted to the windscreen, is a different part fitted by an auto glazier, and we do not replace or refit it.
As Featured In
Side rear-view mirror is one of three names Australians use for exactly the same part — alongside “side mirror” and “wing mirror”. All three mean the exterior mirror mounted on the door, and that's the only mirror we replace or repair.
The name that sometimes causes confusion is the internal rear-view mirror — the one on your windscreen, in front of the driver. That's a genuinely different part, fitted by a windscreen or auto-glazing specialist, not by us.

All Mirror Parts
We can replace and repair mirror motors, covers, glass and indicators so when you are told by others that you need to replace the whole unit, give us a call first and let us advise on the most cost effective and convenient course of action.
What we do — and what we explicitly don't
We replace and repair exterior door-mounted mirrors only. If your question is about the mirror on the windscreen, that's a different trade.
| What is broken | What we do | Typical cost* |
|---|---|---|
| Glass only | Correct ADR-compliant glass cut and fitted to your existing backing plate. | from $135 |
| Cover / housing | Outer cap swapped, glass and motor kept. | $150–$300 |
| Full mirror, plain | Whole assembly, manual or basic powered mirror. | $200–$350 |
| Full mirror, powered | Electric adjust, power fold or integrated indicator. | $350–$500 |
| Blind-spot, camera or auto-dim | Mirrors carrying driver-assist electronics. | Quoted per vehicle |
*Indicative bands. Exterior mirror pricing follows the standard bands — glass from $135, covers, motors and full assemblies quoted per vehicle. Every band here comes from our national price guide — the single source of truth for what we charge. Read the full side mirror replacement cost guide.
No, we do not replace or refit the interior rear-view mirror mounted to your windscreen — that requires an auto glazier, since it's typically bonded to the glass itself. If your interior mirror has fallen off, an auto-glazing specialist is who you need.
The Anatomy
What’s inside a car side mirror
Five parts that can fail independently — and only one that’s usually broken. That’s where the money-saver hides.
The 5 layers of a modern car side mirror — when only layer 1 is broken, you only pay for layer 1.
What each part of the exterior mirror is called
Once you're talking about the right mirror, the parts inside it have their own names too.
The outer shell, usually painted to match the car.
The reflective surface, flat or convex depending on the side.
Drives folding and, on powered mirrors, adjustment.
Built into many modern housings alongside the core mirror function.

Side rear-view mirror replacement Brisbane — your questions answered
Is a side mirror the same as a side rear-view mirror?
Yes, exactly the same part — side mirror, wing mirror and side rear-view mirror all describe the exterior mirror mounted on your car's door.
Do you replace the interior rear-view mirror on the windscreen?
No. That's a different part, typically bonded to the windscreen glass, and it's fitted by an auto glazier, not by us. We only replace and repair the exterior door-mounted mirrors.
What's the difference between a wing mirror and a side mirror?
No difference — both terms refer to the same exterior door-mounted mirror. "Wing mirror" is simply the more traditional term.
How much does exterior mirror replacement cost?
Glass-only from $135 fitted; covers, motors and full assemblies are quoted per vehicle depending on what's damaged and what electronics are built in.
Do you come to me in Brisbane?
Yes, fully mobile across greater Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan, Redlands and Moreton Bay.
My interior mirror fell off — can you help?
Not directly — that's a windscreen-mounted part best handled by an auto glazier. We're happy to point you in the right direction if you're not sure who to call.
Are both exterior mirrors the same part?
No, driver-side and passenger-side mirrors typically differ in curvature and sometimes electronics, so they're not interchangeable between sides.
What warranty applies?
Unlimited on glass, three years on a full assembly, twelve months on an individual part.
