Typical of a dealer to say that you need to replace the entire mirror unit - I could be sounding paranoid or cynical but I do get impression that Lexus dealers are now trying to get more money out of owners based on a couple of my own recent experiences. Disappointing to say the least. I would try my luck with various online breakers as I've often found that there are plenty of used Lexus LS parts readily available. I have managed to source good used parts for my LS430 but I am sure there are LS400s being broken up with parts such as mirror glass being available. Google will give you plenty of sites like www.247spares.co.uk or www.breakeryard.com amongst the many. Good luck

As per the previous posts, vibrations from the brake could be caused by a number of things. I thought most decent garages ensured that they applied some copper grease to the brake pads when these get changed to ensure there's no kind of squeaking. If you feel a judder through the braking pedal at any speeds, this is usually a sign of warped discs. Pads are comparatively cheaper than discs but hard to say what is the cause in your case. Another thing to keep in mind is that if the discs are warped, make sure that the wheel hub is fine too because if this isn't in good condition, this will also cause issues with braking too
