So again, it boils down to what a potential user is looking for and how much they are willing to spend for it. Personally, I agree...if you're gonna get it, then get one that offers you the full potential of it's capabilities. |

My new 2007 mirrors finally came in and I installed them today. I was encouraged to do it because another poster several months ago wrote a step-by-step description of how to do it. It didn't sound too difficult, so I decided to try it. It was really easy. Taking off the old mirror, installing the new mirror, and having it blinking took me 11 minutes. Both mirrors and putting the tools away was 25 minutes, tops. In case anyone else is interested in doing this, I took some pictures so you can see how easy it was.  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com"> This picture shows the tools that I used: a putty knife, a flat head screwdriver, a socket wrench with a 10mm socket, and the small screwdriver attachment on the Swiss Army pocket knife I have.  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com "> This photo shows where I first inserted the putty knife between the plastic cover and the painted door surface.  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com ">This photo shows where next I inserted the screwdriver between the cover and the putty knife. There are three mounting points on the inside of the cover; one forward (toward the door hinge) and two toward the back (toward the window glass). The cover just pops off. No need to remove the door panel.  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com This photo shows the cover removed.">  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com ">This photo shows the bolt pattern and the electrical connection between the mirror and the door.">  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com This photo shows the mirror plug disconnected from the door receptacle.You depress a tab on the receptacle to release the plug and then you just pull them apart. I used the Swiss Army knofe to push in the tab. Then you unscrew the nut on the three bolts and remove the mirror from the door. The wire connection slips out through the hole in the door as you remove the mirror. ">  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com Here's what the inside of the door looks like after you've removed the mirror.">  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com Here's what the outside of the door looks like with the mirror removed."> Now you just reverse the process to put the new mirror on. Insert the mirror bolts through the holes and tighten them down, insert the plug in the receptacle, and pop the cover back on.I tested the signals before I put the cover back on.  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com Here's the new mirror installed on the door.">  See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com And here's the completed job. "> |

Replying to: sergio19 (May 25, 2007 5:30 pm) Where did you get the mirrors? I'd like to do it myself too! The mirrors can be acquired online from koreanautoimports.com. Just so I understand clearly...you just plugged in the new mirrors and bingo all lights worked? That's right, once I plugged them in, I turned on the ignition, flipped the turn signal on, and as you said "bingo" the lights worked, the mirrors adjust up/down/left/right, the mirrors housing pivots in & out, etc. Now, I hope the change over to the 07 steering wheel audio control I'm getting ready to do goes as easy as this did. Thanks for the kind words.

Replying to: sergio19 (May 26, 2007 3:46 am) A torx screwdriver is necessary. These screws will be tight, so don't be afraid to exert a little force to loosen them. Once loose, the job is a snap. The airbag need not be removed, just moved out of the way.

Replying to: eclaixp (May 26, 2007 3:57 am) Sorry, I don't know about the SE model. I have an 06 Limited Ultimate. Wish I could help. Maybe someone else on this forum will know. |

Replying to: zredsox (May 26, 2007 6:02 pm) If you wish to be extra safe and not chance activating the air bag, disconnect the negative battery cable. If you don't,( which I didn't) the horn will sound for a second, and scare the hell out of you, as you are inserting the torx screwdrive.
