The mirror might cost more than the car...

It's a joke to imply that you haven't searched a damn bit. www.carpart.com, your local junkyard, eBay, look around!!!

the right mirror is rare because it's a manual one . the Lx ,Lxi comes standard with a power mirror . it will bolt on to the Dx just have toadjust it from the outside.

i used to own a 88 lx and the mirrors are actually very cheap, you probably could get one a local junk yard for about 15-20 bucks

That right mirror was an accessory part on the Dx... not all of them had it. Most people who bought DXs were too cheap to buy the $100 mirror

Look on eBay for someone parting out one of those cars.

Putting an Lx/Lxi mirror on a Dx is ghetto... IMHO

'88 Dx Accords did not have body-colored mirrors... they were black.
