When the wrecker said you need to change the whole mirror, did they mean just the piece of glass/mirror or the whole side rear view mirror casing unit including the glass?

I think you can just change the piece of glass. Get a flat head screw driver and hinge out the glass to see if it will pop out... Take it easy as you don't want to dent the plastic casing around the mirror.

Also be aware of the electronic mechanisim that allows you to adjust the angle of the mirror, you don't wanna damage it.

Yeah..?

i changed mine yesterday very simple you dont need to take off anything

as mentined above get a wide flat head screwdriver and place it underneath the mirror, or adjust the angle of the mirror so you can fit your fingers in. theres 2 clip thingys at the bottom of the glass (behind the mirror), 1 on the center right and 1 on the center left so just get the screwdriver/fingers in there and push it out 1 clip at a time

if you use the screwdriver you might wanna put some rubber or somethin on the head so theres less chance it'll snap the glass...

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
