Have managed to snap off the drivers door folding wing mirror, the whole unit ! (can't say how) To make safe I dismantled the unit, seemed quite easy (probably not a good idea) any way the wiring is now safe and out of the way. Looking at the broken part it could be a cheap repair if I can get the bearing post. It looks to be an alloy casting made by Mastercast I think. The broken part has a number 58228 stamped on it and also an identifier GD-AL231 there are some on Ebay for the Toureg and Audi but they look different. Anyone know if there is a outlet for this part or an odd one knocking around, possibly in the bottom of someones toolbox ?

Anyway this subject on LED DRL keeps on running and I still have not got it sorted out I have the P13W LED lamps from ebay with resistors, have fitted them but the resistors get really HOT, now removed and original P13W replaced. Trying to think of another way of doing it by leaving the original P13W lamps connected but covered by some alloy tube cut off and connecting the P13W LED lamps in parallel. Anyone think this might be a plausible solution, I think I can get the P13W lamp holder from RS or Farnell and make a coupling lead up.
