#1 of 4 Power Mirror Wiring by traderjack Jul 21, 2008 (10:31 am)
Hi folks. Nothing in my search so heree goes...   I need to replace the driver side mirror on the wife's Jimmy(car wash accident). I have a replacement coming but I can't figure out how to get at the wiring harness plug inside the mirror??   I called the dealership and was told there were 3 screws, but I certainly can't find them...   Any advice as to how to get at the mirrors internals so I can disconnect the old mirror and connect the new mirror to the harness?   Thanks a million for your help!

Replying to: traderjack (Jul 21, 2008 10:31 am) I've taken mine off my Nissan and looked at a friend's Tacoma - both of our side mirrors come off by removing three bolts. The bolts are hidden behind a plastic fascia that just snaps in. Maybe yours is similar?   This may help too.   Zredsox's CarSpace Album

I've had the mirror off the car. The mirror is held to the door by 3 nuts that fasten to 3 threaded studs inserted into 3 plastic bosses on the mirror frame. The plastic bosses are broken. I have epoxy holding them right now but I don't expect it to last very long.   If the mirror assembly itself has any bolts or fasteners, they certainly are hidden well. I suspect they are behind a 'snap in' panel as you mention, but my question is, which panel is the one that 'snaps in'?   Of course, once the replacement mirror arrives, I can experiment on the old one and pry all I like to discover the 'secret panel'. I was just hoping a member could share which panel was the 'secret panel'.   Thanks for your reply. Replies to this message: steve_ (Jul 21, 2008 2:53 pm)

Replying to: traderjack (Jul 21, 2008 2:23 pm) Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I don't know how to dismantle mine much further than taking it off the car. It's full of epoxy too, and I have to reglue it every year or so.   Good luck with it!
