        Elise S1 ,S2 Exige mark 1 and 2 and new Europa all share the same side mirrors.(340R was different) They are parts bin refugees from the Rover days and were standard fitment on the Rover Mini Metro.

  They are shared also with the MGF and MGTF and all the Vauxhall VX 220s. If you smash one then a breakers yard will probably be a good cheap source but you will have to get them body match sprayed which is prettty expensive for such a small job . The actual glass itself is about £25 each from Lotus. Occasionally on e-bay you can find singles or pairs of the whole assembly usualy under Rover or Metro. No Lotus Elise variant ever had electric mirrors or heated mirrors but some Rovers did as did some MGs so beware if you are buying from a breaker unless you really are a chav and a dab hand with electrics.

  One other safety option is replacement glass from MultiVex. These are available in pairs and DIY bonded over your existing mirrors in a few minutes and are increasingly convex towards the ourtside and give a much wider field of view than the essentially flat standard fitment. They are particularly popular with trackday enthusiasts as they eliminate the notorious blind spot .Also useful on Motorways and when travelling abroad. MultiVex have a website at www.multivex.co.uk expaining more.
