Question
I hit a street construction barrel while driving and took out my mirror. I have purchased a new mirror. Can you walk me through on how to replace it. Thanks Jason  

Answer
That depends...if its a remote mirror it will take a few more extra steps.

Anyhow, you need to put the window up.

Remove the interior panel.

Usually there are two nuts to undo from under the mirror.

Undo the nuts, and pull off.

Sometimes, the mirror must slide forward to be removed--as it may fit into the door like a puzzle piece.
