Q: Mirror replacement
My passenger side mirror broke. It was a power mirror with a blinker arrow on it. The replacement mirror is $250. Is it possible to replace the mirror with just a plain mirror, and use it manually from now on? I don't need the blinker arrow or the power part, if I can save money. I found this part that appears it will work. I just don't know if I have to replace it with the exact same one. Thank you!
