Part Number for Driver's Side Mirror-1999 Minnie 24V

[jimmyg41]

Hello everyone, first post here, hoping I can get a bit of help. We just recently purchased a 99 Minnie 24V. The passenger side view mirror broke and my understanding is that I need to get the whole assembly (arm and mirror). There's a Winnebago parts website that I've e-mailed over two weeks ago with no luck. Does anyone just have the part number? I know Velvac makes the mirrors, just trying to find a used one.

I have a couple thoughts,. One depends on how "broken" it is. If only the glass, suggest looking at having a glass shop replace as that is what we had at one point. Much cheaper----if it works.

But assuming no cheap way out, I'm not finding the model 24 V in the list, so here is the parts catalog and perhaps that will get what you need?

Mirrows are in the "exterior" section and there appears to be Ford or Chevy types???

Good luck with the chase! The small parts can get to be a pain at times!

Thank you both very much. Sorry, it is a 24W, my mistake. This is exactly what I was looking for. To answer the question on how broken it is, unfortunately the whole unit snapped off. I'll try to upload a picture later but my understanding is the whole assembly would be replaced. I appreciate your help once again :-)

Understand when it is BROKE BROKEN!
In our mirror case, we were parked on the side of a road and a truck came along and clipped the mirror but we were surprised and it was only the glass broken out.

I replaced both Velvac mirrors after 2 separate incidents. My Ford truck shop ordered them in from a local truck supply place. When they came in, they installed them at the same time as an oil change and post-winter inspection. They were $42.00 each and took an hour total to install.

Are you talking glass only? Velvac mirror assemblies cost hundreds.

The Velvac mirrors on the long arm have a nasty habit of breaking off where the arm pivots on the mount if they are folded in and out a lot. There is a way to fix them using a nut and washer on the bottom instead of the pressed on pot metal they used at the factory but the nut must be tensioned against the spring the right amount to hold the mirror firmly and still allow it to fold in. Over time folding in in and out will loosen the nut and it will have to be snugged up. I had one on my Chevy Express Utility van that I fixed this way and it lasted about 10 years till a barricade jumped out in front of me and finished it off.

Sorry, yes just the glass. I also carry a small sheet of reflective mylar that makes an emergency roadside repair.
