What's the best source of a replacement part or whole mirror for this problem? I assume there are some favored sites for owners on this forum.

My wife was forced off of the road in October, and cracked the housing for her 2002 XC70 ( big silly power mirror, with lights and memory) after hitting some debris form a freak snow storm that snapped countless trees. I actually work for a large auto group, and priced out replacement parts with my employee discount. The young man in the Volvo parts department referred me to "Erie Vovo" http://www.erievovo.com/ who was very friendly, and had wonderful parts on the cheap. I have also scored a few odds and ends off of Amazon, but would try these folks first for something like a mirror. Best of luck to you.

Thanks for the tip. Just ordered the part. Wish I had posted the question three years ago when the problem started.

Also, do you know where there are instructions on how to perform the remove and replace operation?

Edit: Nevermind. I found dozens of very clear video's on You Tube.
