Push down on the middle bottom portion of the mirror then undo three clips and it will pop out. I used a long flat head screw driver. Be careful or you'll break the glass. That was a $38 mistake i made. Not as bad as if i would have purchased a replacement straight from the dealership. Ford wanted $85 for the replacement mirror glass. They're on crack. Anyways it's not too hard, just be careful!

That's the price you pay for "beauty". Regular mirrors aren't worthy!

Thanks. I'm gonna try to do it tomorrow. And I no what you mean. I bought a bed bolt and the clip that the bolt threads through they wanted like thirty dollars for it When I got there to pick it up. But when I called to order it they wanted like 9 dollars. I ended up getting it for like 10 dollars. They guy said that Is below there cost they lost money.

Sure it was... That's what dealerships like to say "listen, manager approved this deal, just for you today, but really we're losing money here..."

Thanks everyone. A lot of members trucks we my inspiration.

I own a "wrap" company, so my next project will be a partial wrap and decals. thinking of a cool looking mud spray pattern along the side. It will also help protect my paint from rocks.
