Do you mean the mirror glass lens is broken?

If it's the glass part it's probably something like THIS

I haven't had to do this on the Jimny but replaced a heated glass mirror on my SAAB - and that had a nightmare-to-reach spring-clip like THIS ONE which you had to get at through a gap with thin screwdriver

ALSO HERE

I'm sure someone else on here must know - this would be a really good article to add into the WIKI


IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

C'mon guys - somebody here must surely know how the mirror is held in on the Jim?

If nothing is forthcoming you might phoine a Suzuki dealer or - failing that, have a look on YouTube for other Suzuki models I'd guess the method likely to be the same/similar

First thing to check if you got one from fleaBay is check the feedback score of the vendor - this will go some way to indicating whether the heater element will work!
I replaced my SAAB mirror with one from eBay and it was fine. I tried to find who it was that sold it to me but it was so long ago that the eBay record doesn't go back that far otherwise I could have given you a recommended vendor :(
