mez - have got them and occasioanlly they stick after 7 years.

Never looked indside - but I'm sure the mechanism just gets detached and one side can stick. Solution has always been to try a couple of time with the switch and then pull them out manually

I Ahave a smashed Electric folding wing mirror on the drivers side . I cant afford Renaults fitting cost. Is this a relatively simple job to do ?

you flip the cover off on the inside of the car and undo the torque screws and the whole lot pulls off (fit in reverse order)
