Replace the review mirror

How do I remove the damaged review mirror (passenger side) and install a new review mirror. ([email protected])

  • brmuenzen Oct 30, 2008

    How do I remove the damaged review mirror (passenger side) and install a new review mirror. The mirror assembly is attached to the car, not the door. I can't find any access to remove the assembly from the car. The actual mirror has separated from the tilt adjustment motor but is intact.

  • brmuenzen Oct 30, 2008

    The mirror has detached, The housing that shields the mirror and drive motor has been damaged. The some of the attachment tabs on the mirror have been broken. The hinge assembly that allows you to colapse the mirror to move it out of "harm's way" appears to be OK. The entire mirror assembly is attached to the car body, not the door. Removing the door panel as in previous model years doesn't give any access.

    I need to replace the mirror, the mirror motor and the mirror housing that contains the mirror and motor. This assumses that I can get these repair parts. Otherwise I will need to replace the entire assembly from the point where the assembly attaches to the car.

You need to remove the plastic plate that cover the mirror joint from the inside and undo the three bolts.

    First you remove the triangular plastic cover.

    Behind you find the first two bolts, undo them using an allen wrench.

    Once you undo the first two bolts, open the passenger door all the way through and find that third bolt.

    Undo the third bolt and free the mirror.

If you still dont have your answer I highly recommend just picking up the service manual it is at that link on ebay for 35$ or best offer. Well worth the investment and it will give you a step by step on how to do anything and everything with your vehicle. It is what the dealer mechanics use. Please take a moment to accept and rate my solution accordingly.
Thanks,

Do you want to re-attach the mirror to the power mirror assy? no sure what it is you want to do, if you need to replace the entire mirror head then the door panel must come off for access, let me know what it is you want to repair.

Need to replace Mirror Assembly, 03 suburban

Your going to have to remove the inside door panel to get to the three bolts that hold the out side mirror assembly. Once you have the door panel off you'll see the three bolts that hold the mirror assembly, just un-bolt and un-clip the wire harness to the electric/heated mirror. To install the new mirror assembly, just do everything in reveres. Go to Auto Zone and by extra door panel clips, there is a good chance of breaking some of the retainer clips and Auto Zone will have the step by step instructions to replacing the mirror assembly and the removal to the door panel. Good luck and keep me posted. Be glad to help.

Replace passenger side power mirror clearance lamp (bulb only).

If you are facing the passenger side mirror adjust the top (large) mirror so that it is turning in towards the truck as far as it will go. Then look behind the mirror in the bottom righthand corner (outside bottom corner) and you will see a silver metal clip. Take a straight head screw driver and push on that clip and the lens will pop out. Then you simply unscrew the bulb holder from the lens and replace your bulb. Good luck!
