        I've had one repaired where they just glue on a new piece over the cracked bit. It's almost impossible to remove just the glass without breaking something else.

          I thought about that if I could get a piece of mirror cut the same size as the original.

            Would one from a Protege fit? They are close in looks, it is blueish tinted though

              Go to your regular parts store and see if they have a replacement glass for a 1992 mazda protege LX, same glass as yours.
              If you don't find one let me know I'll check in JY tomorrow for one.

                  Had one made by a glass/mirror shop!
                  Not cheap but fit perfect!
                  Took incomplete pieces to shop and they templated it and made one!
                  Used acetone to remove pieces of mirror from adhesive.

                      I bought two NOS mirrors this morning at 3:05 am on ebay for $20.48 ( for both )+ combined shipping. :sleepy3: Looks like Redford might be in for an upgrade too.

                          The company is called redi-cut they sell all sorts of oem flat and convexed side mirror replacement parts. If it is a power mirror you can maybe separate the ball joint from the plastic frame and work from there. Good luck
