Title says it all.. I'm looking to get my hands on the passenger side ribbon assembly to repair mine. If you have one, post up, I'd like to have it in my hands before the weekend!

Thanks folks!

These flex cables really are garbage.

If you're comfortable with that you can sand off the connectors and solder some wire to the two ends - I fixed both sides on my car with this method and to date they're working well.

Joop's not very handy (ha). Good idea!

I would go for that, but the current ribbon assembly was cut off and thrown away. Right now there is nothing inside the passenger mirror assembly.

This......is a really damn good idea since both of mine are shot too. I guess I have a weekend project now.

Sorry to derail your thread joop.
