Convex Mirrors Fell Off

I was driving on I-10 today and hit a bump in the road and the passenger side convex mirror fell off. Anybody ever have this happen ? I have seen replacement mirrors for cars and trucks at Auto Zone and Pepboys but where do you get a replacement for one on a motorhome. This mirror is about 6in x 4 1/2 and convex. They are just stick on with 3M double side tape. I can't find a manufacturer name anywhere on the mirror or in the spect paper. I guess I will try and call Monaco. Anyone have any IDEAS. Thanks

Here is where I purchased one for my previously owned Holiday Rambler.
Home I just called them with the measurements and they shipped the replacement and the adhesive.

I also called Ramco. They shipped the mirror to my next known destination and it was waiting when I arrived. I asked for the adhesive to be sent also. It was just a small tube of silicone sealant. I cleaned all mating surfaces, applied silicone and mirror, and used blue masking tape to hold it in the right place for a couple of days. The mirror on the opposite side of coach was loose, so I pulled it off and re-glued it at the same time. You are correct, it is a pain to drive without that mirror. Good luck, HarveyP

I replaced my second one last week from Ramco. I should know the part number by heart, but I don't...

Mine fell off during a trip. Wife dashed into a truck stop while we were fueling and bought a couple of different ones for a few bucks each. Glued one in place. Worked great, didn't fit good, but was functional. When we got home, I spent $40 to get the factory replacement and guess what....it did not fit! Glued the truck stop piece back on and am still using it.

roscoesdad, Thanks again received the mirror from Ramco Monday and put it on the same day. Perfect fit and it came with a new swivel and three new screws. Put that on and the morror just snapped in place. Using the motorhome this weekend and am glad to be able to see down that side again. Surprisingly it was only $27.50 for the morror and $11.00 shipping. Will keep their name and number on file.

They should have sent you one at no cost under warranty. They did that for me.
