Prius Mirror Replacement - NHW20 (2004-2009) - YouTube

 

The cover has popped off. These are available from Toyota, already painted in matching colors, for about $40.
Just get the paint code of the car label and match it to the cover. Pretty sure my Driftwood Pearl was 4S2. Your Blue should be ???

Mirror - 2009 Toyota Prius (toyotapartsdeal.com)

 

Not sure if it is cracked under the tape.

 

Is it Galaxy blue?

 

Driver door pillar will have the paint code, one of 3

 

If mirror is cracked or broken in the red area, replace the complete mirror. Paint code is on the attached label on door pillar. Example C/TR 4S2

Aftermarket mirror also available from Rockauto or Amazon for about $40, would have to paint it. Depends if your mirror is heated or not.

2008 TOYOTA PRIUS 1.5L L4 ELECTRIC/GAS Outside Mirror & Glass Assembly | RockAuto

TYC or Depot are quality reproductions.

 

They are next to impossible to find at junkyards. Rather than deal with aftermarket, I just ordered the entire assembly from the dealer -- I have done it twice -- once on the passenger side because of a doe and a second time because of someone clipping my parked car on the street.

It's an easy replacement -- well -- if you have smaller hands it is easy. Don't even need to remove the inside door panel, just crack it open at the top....took about 15 minutes?? Dealer quoted about $200 FOR LABOR ONLY to replace, not including the parts. There are probably some YouTube vids....

I did end-up buying the inside speaker (tweeter?) grill when I did the driver's side, as it had also cracked -- $5 at the junkyard.

Cheapest? $40 - 50 either way, aftermarket to paint, salvage, some just leave the mirror black, its a 13 year old car, take the cover off the other one and paint it black. Paint it blue will have to mix a spray can at a bodyshop supply, not sure if duplicolor has a spray can from Adavance Parts, still $15-30 for paint.

Go to car-part.com input vehicle year etc and your zip, may find a blue mirror near you. Don't know your zip

8M6 is the paint code and is Spectra Blue Mica
FE11 is the trim code.

 

I find the mirrors in eBay and in junk yards quite regularly not necessarily in the colors that I want but go look on eBay all the vents from every Toyota Prius in the world are on sale for on eBay for $199 for all four of them I just got a set of four for free so this stuff is out here people are putting down these Gen 2 left and right or they're trying to sell them for $5,000 and their brakes are getting ready to fail any minute they're everywhere I mean every day somebody's calling me up hey I just took in an 07 we're not going to touch it it's got that ugly tan interior and it's gold so pretty much nothing on it's any good
