Here's a great how to video that will walk you through the repair process.

So... I am a 29 year old "girl." I looked online for my broken mirror's replacement. I found one fore $39.95 with free shipping. I paid $7 for spray paint and I purchased none of the tools mentioned. I had never done anything like this, never! I was scared that I was going to break something and cost myself more money. But after two hours, and one fight with my husband because he thought I was going to do more harm than good, it was done! And looks perfect!

The hardest part was getting the mirror itself off and trying to understand how the fasteners worked on the door panel. It felt fantastic to know that I did it and I didn't have to go somewhere and pay $200-300 for someone else to do what I did for less than $50!

This was completely helpful! I was able to change my mirror like a pro. Now I can tell my husband "Don't worry, I can do it myself!
