I need to replace a broken driver's side mirror. Just the glass.

Wear gloves and eye protection when removing the mirror glass. Carefully pull out the bottom edge of the mirror holder by hand. Carefully and evenly, pull the lower edge of the mirror holder slowly, until it unsnaps from the actuator.

If the hooks stuck to the mirror holder, remove them and reinstall them onto the actuator base. Carefully align the clips and hooks, and using even pressure, snap the mirror holder onto the actuator base. Check the mirror operation. Thanks for using 2CarPros.com!
