I recently shattered my Right Rearview Mirror on a Mailbox, and I’m trying to purchase the parts so that I can fix it. [I found where](https://parts.toyota.com/a/Toyota_2015_RAV4-Limited-VIN-2T3YFREV-25L-AT/_52016_6708567/MIRROR/665420-8701.html) I can purchase the parts on [parts.toyota.com](http://parts.toyota.com), but I have immense trouble understanding what parts I should order. I can see the pictures and the numbers associated, but “Door Mirror Glass” has several different things to purchase for different prices, and I need some help dissecting this information! Here is an example of something that is confusing me: ![Screen Shot 2020-07-14 at 4.35.03 PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/a/5/a5b9053f1039bb440e332e8dd9588b5b00a1ee8b.png) Why are these two parts with the same code being sold for different amounts? What does this mean? From 201301 to 201511. From 201511 on. From 201511 to 201709 What about all of this text? L000003 0; 500003P 0; 500003M 0010 0; 3000040 0; 300003M 0010 0; ASA44…LIMD,SE;ASA42…(LIMD,SE)…USA; ASA42…XLE…CND;ASA44…LIMD,SE,XLE;ASA42…(LIMD,SE,XLE)…USA; ASA42…(LIMD,SE)…CND; ASA4#…LIMD; BLIND SPOT MONITOR-WITH; BACK MONITOR-WITH(\*PVM)&BLIND SPOT MONITOR-WITH; If somebody could cleanly dissect this information for me, I would be so grateful. Thanks! ---

I don’t have time to look at this closely, but it appears at a glance that one has the indicator light for the blind spot monitor and one doesn’t, so it depends what your car has. ---

Why not just go to a Toyota dealer parts counter . You will pay more but you will get the right parts . I think 201301 to 201511 means Jan , 2013 to Dec , 2015 . Of course you could call the contact number and have your VIN handy . ---

The 87931 is to help you locate the part in the price list from the picture The part numbers are different 879310R0 **9** 0 = 141.51 = blind spot monitoring 879310R0 **8** 0 = 69.07 = no blind spot monitoring ---

I always go with [rockauto.com](http://rockauto.com) when ordering parts for my Toyota.If you can tell us the year,model and trim of your Toyota it will help us a lot. ---
