Compare Subaru wing mirror replacement quotes from specialist garages

Subaru is known for using the innovative boxer engine, named for the horizontal movement of the pistons - almost like a boxer throwing punches. The flat layout of this engine provides better fuel efficiency, and its low centre of gravity makes it more responsive.

In the 2020 Driver Power Survey, Subaru was voted the best manufacturer for safety features for the second year running. And it isn't just cars that Subaru manufactures - it also has an aerospace division that develops and creates parts for planes, including Boeing's 777 and 787 passenger jets.

A complete wing mirror unit replacement should take less than half an hour. Delivery of the unit is often the most time-consuming aspect of the job, so it may be quicker to go to a main dealer who already has the part in stock, although this will likely cost more than at an independent garage.

Ultimately, the cost is dependent on the extent of the damage. If you have a smashed wing mirror, you will only need to replace the glass, which is cheaper than replacing the whole wing mirror.
