I have a crack in the driver side mirror. Just the glass, no other damage.

Are the Q50 parts the same? I'm seeing lots of those on ebay, with the odd listing mentioning it will fit the q70.

I would cross reference the part numbers. If they are the same, then it should be good. If there is a variation in them, I probably wouldn't risk it. Might be slightly different wiring, connectors, who knows.

Thanks for the reply.

Yep.

This is looking like it's going to be a pain. Infiniti will of course sell me the entire mirror, but not the glass.

So wasteful.

the q50 mirror and housing are the same, but not the the part that bolts onto the car

I don't know why Infiniti is giving you a runaround, the glass is available separately. They only show one mirror glass for Q70L's and it fits a bunch of other stuff, so somebody is giving you a BS job.

Pretty much. Infiniti dealer network up here in maple syrup land is a joke, and is an afterthought by Nissan these days.

4 bones +tax, but better than buying a new mirror assembly.

Thanks all.
