The reflector mirror shattered and I need to replace it, but don't know where to buy this part. As other companies ask a fee just to send it away and then the cost come for the repair. I want to try and cancel the extra cost by doing the repair myself. Can you help?
Is this a good question?

The mirror is a custom part for your camera. Often they are epoxied to a frame and the whole part needs to be replaced. Even if the mirror is clipped it in you'll need to order the part from Canon.
There is a bit of alignment involved so the image is true and in focus. Frankly, this is delicate repair! Are you sure the savings is worth the risk of more damage? I would look for a local Canon authorized service center or ship it to them and pay the higher cost knowing it will be done correctly and if there is a problem they are on the hook to repair it.

They don’t repair cameras this old. I am crossing my fingers that keh.com or a local store can do it. Good luck.
