Does the Bestune T77's rearview mirror need to be completely replaced if it's scratched inside?
4 Answers
If the interior of the Bestune T77's rearview mirror is scratched, the extent of the damage needs to be assessed. If the assembly is also damaged, a complete replacement is necessary. Types of rearview mirrors include: 1. Interior rearview mirror: This mirror allows the driver to confirm the situation behind without significantly changing the forward line of sight while driving. 2. Exterior rearview mirror: Passenger cars typically mount the exterior rearview mirror on the door. 3. Under-mirror: This enables the driver to see whether there is anyone near the front and rear wheels and the side of the car when reversing or starting forward. Additional information: Rearview mirrors are tools that allow the driver, seated in the driver's seat, to directly obtain external information about the rear, side, and lower parts of the car. For the convenience of the driver and to prevent traffic safety accidents and ensure personal safety, all countries require that cars must be equipped with rearview mirrors, and all rearview mirrors must be adjustable in direction.
As a proud owner of the Bestune T77, let me break down the rearview mirror issue for you. If 'the inside is broken' just means a cracked mirror glass or loose wiring, there's no need to replace the entire unit—just spend a little on repairing the specific part. My car had a similar issue; the interior components are prone to dust accumulation or vibration damage. Bestune T77 parts are quite common and can be purchased online for replacement. However, if the housing or bracket is cracked, affecting the turning or rainproof functions, you'll need a complete replacement. Otherwise, unstable visibility while driving could lead to accidents during turns. My advice: first, check it yourself—see if the mirror still adjusts properly. If it moves but the image is blurry, a simple cleaning or repair might suffice. But if it's stuck or leaking water, visit a professional shop for a full assembly replacement. A complete mirror replacement isn't expensive; an OEM Bestune T77 mirror costs just a few hundred bucks. Bottom line: don't cut corners—prioritize driving safety above all.
I'm considering the cost issue, and naturally, I don't want to spend more money when the car breaks down. If the rearview mirror of the Bestune T77 is damaged inside, it might only involve the mirror glass or minor circuitry, so replacing the entire unit isn't necessary—repairing individual parts is much cheaper. For example, if the mirror glass is broken, you can just buy a new one for a few dozen yuan and install it. However, if the adjustment motor or housing is damaged, making it impossible to position the car's surroundings, then replacing the entire unit is more cost-effective, saving you the hassle of repeated repairs and wasted time. The market price for Bestune T77 parts generally ranges between 500-800 yuan, and sometimes replacing the whole unit is simpler and more efficient than partial repairs. I once helped a friend with this—replacing only the damaged parts saved half the cost. But if the damage is extensive in an accident, such as a bent bracket, it's better to replace it entirely to avoid additional risks. Driving with unclear visibility is too dangerous—don't risk major losses for minor savings.
From a safety perspective, the rearview mirror is a crucial piece of driving equipment. If the rearview mirror of the Bestune T77 is broken, you need to check whether it affects its functions, such as angle adjustment or reflection. If it's just the mirror glass that's broken, a simple replacement will suffice; but if the circuitry or bracket is damaged, you might need to replace the entire unit. Otherwise, it could become blurry during rain or at high speeds, potentially leading to accidents. I recommend going to a 4S store immediately for an assessment—don't attempt a DIY fix. The Bestune T77 has high part compatibility, and professionals can quickly determine the severity of the damage. Minor damage can be repaired quickly, but structural damage that isn't replaced will reduce reliability. In short, prioritize safety—don't wait until nighttime driving becomes a problem.
