slick Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Take off the door panel. Up where the mirror is, thers a little foam/rubber insert piece, thats of course if it didn't fall out. Take it out, and there should be 3 nut/bolt combo. Undo that, and wa la. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTPrix Posted September 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 The mirror snapped off pretty clean, but i can see the rubber bushing from the outside. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Oohh, it snapped off. Are the holes still there to mount a new mirror?? But other than that, my description is how you take off a mirror...... properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTPrix Posted September 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 well the housing that is basically flush with the window is still there, but the rest snapped off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1138 Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Yeah, my car kissed a telephone pole about a week after I started driving it and I lost that same mirror. Just recently replaced it- just pull back the door panel enough to torque down the nuts- you'll need a deep socket. That's basically what I did.
