you need to take the door panel off to get to all the bolts for the mirror.

from memory

screw on door handle
screws on bottom of door panel
screw by mirror
lift up on panel

its been a while since I did it.

the panel is held on by "L" shaped tabs. There are no Christmas tree plugs to deal with. dont pull the panel straight out. Lift it up.

hope that helps. Screws and lift up.

well, i got it done today, took maybe 15min. at most...only thing that slowed me down, was the bolt on the door handle... i didnt think of it, and went pullin on the door, and it wasnt goin nowhere... but, it was easier then i thought it was, and i would hate to see what DC would have charged to put it on....thanks
