Which part do you need to replace? If it's just the glass you can
yank the old glass out and snap the new glass in. If it's the housing you'll most likely need to take the door panel off.

Do be careful when "Yanking" the old glass out.
The mechanical works in behind the glass sometimes break. Though "yanking" is in fact the recommended procedure. Iif you break it you will end up replacing the whole housing unless you are quite ingenious at repairs. This is experience talking. Mine broke on the yank, and I ended up repairing it after I was told that I had to replace the whole mirror as parts are not available individually. It was quite an effort replacing it but mine were painted to match my car so it was more than the cost of the mirror it was the paint work too. As for replacing the mirror. If you need to replace the whole thing, yes you do have to remove the door panel as the electrical plugs are in behind it. You first remove all of the screws and the cup for the door handle. There may be a plastic plug in the front edge, near the bottom. Be cautious when removing it, or it may break. Roll your window down, push in the plunger for your door locks and LIFT on the door panel straight up to remove it. You may have to give it a little bump to get it started. There are about four large plastic hooks along the bottom on the inside and some scattered within the body of the panel. Be careful not to pry out on them, or they will break. If they DO break, you will end up with a door panel that will not attach snugly and it may rattle. And... lastly... if you want people to take you seriously in this group try being a bit more cautious with your spelling and usage. The guys in here (for the most part) are a surprisingly educated, mature group. They will call you on the carpet for blatant misspellings and grammatical bumbling. HAY is food for livestock. HEY is a greeting. I'm not picking on you, really. Kate "Ashton Crusher" > wrote in message ... > Which part do you need to replace?
