Default Mirror Replacement

I was a dope and caught my passenger side mirror on a snow stake this weekend Bullseye shatter on the mirror Looking at Suncoast I see this

https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKU991ASP.html

Aside from confirming if I have auto dimming mirrors, is this what I need? Is this the whole unit and not just the mirror? Is it such that I can’t just replace the mirror?

I have no one to blame but myself…

I just had some idiot on a bike kick my drivers side mirror and left it hanging. I just bought an OEM one on ebay for around $400 that is my same color so you might look at as an option if you need the entire mirror.

The housing is fine, and the motor still moves the mirror I guess I’m trying to understand if I can just replace the mirror or am I replacing the whole thing?

Depends, if the housing is good and just shattered mirror, just get the mirror. Replacement is easy, pop old one out and pop in new one.

There are YouTube videos on how to replace side mirrors.

Could you recommend where I’d find one? So far, the limited stuff I’ve needed I’ve got from suncoast, but all I’m seeing there is the whole thing (I think)

I don't know your car, but just do a web search for your model year. A quick search on web, I found this:

2012-2017 Porsche 911 Mirror Glass 991-731-035-06 | OEM Pro Parts - US

You might find cheaper used on ebay.

Thanks, the prices are about equal to Suncoast so I guess the glass is just that expensive, wasn’t clear if for that much I was getting more than I needed Glad to know I’m not missing something

Ive done this job before. The mirror comes applied to a plastic backing. That sandwiches the heated mirror pad in between. It heats up when you turn the rear glass heater on.

The old mirror just needs pulling out and you pop the replacement in. I paid 110£ directly from Porsche, mine was heated but not auto dimming.
