Driver Door mirror replacement 200 1990

I need to replace the driver door mirror. How do I get the old one off? It looks like the inside triangular piece must come off somehow.

Thanks for your advice.

Mark

I would recomend taking the door panel off. I pulled one off a wreck thinking I could figure out a way to replace the wifes with out removing the door panel...trashed the door panel on the wreck (mine and in bad shape to start with)

It could be done...maybe? much easier to just take the panel off...the "triangle" just clips on and is quite easy to remove then.

Yes. Probably best to take the door panel off at least to do a clean job of it. Once the triangle is removed it's obvious by looking at it how you replace the mirror assembly.

Do you need the whole mirror assembly replaced, or just the glass? If it's just glass, there is a hole in the bottom of the morror through which you can insert a small screwdriver. By carefully pushing a tab toward the car, the glass can be removed on it's bracket. Then either a new bracket and mirror from a boneyard can be put in or a new piece of mirror can be cut and glued onto the bracket for reinstallation.

I haven't done the whole assembly, so I can't help there. Good Luck.
