    Can this mirror be refurbished?

    The only way to find out restoration cost is to contact chrome platers. Most quality chrome platers will only plate parts that have been repaired in house or by some one they trust to maintain their reputation as a plater. Even then after repair, pot metal is never permanently repaired...

    Use a flat blade to get between the glass and wiskers to grab the lock rod on the passenger door. Your local police department will have one. They may even get it open if your nice to them. They did this on a regular basis years back so they have experience.

    Windshield Leaks

    That is a leaded area from the factory. I believe what your problem is that someone replaced the windshield at some point with out using window sealer in the gasket and over time the leaking caused the leaded joints to corrode.
