    I think they’re around $250. Heard you can find them on sale sometimes for $195.

    You might want to consider replacing that wheel. The rim of it is compromised. You can unzip a tire and explode it pretty easily there.

    The tire itself looks like potential metal showing. If so replace that too.

    If I were you, I would blame it on Schneider. Always worked for me. ;-)

    Its not the cat's fault. She can't adjust the mirrors herself.
