I found I could get at the mirror assemby by unscrewing the philips screw on the front-inner side of the door, nearest the mirror, then "pop" the fasteners by pulling on the door cover and lifting it out of the window tray (might help if the window is down). The top corner of the door can then be pulled back about four inches, which is all you need (I propped it open for the remaining steps). Then unscrew the speaker cover (I think it's a T-20 size star head) and remove the foam backing. Now you can get to the bolt holding the mirror on, which is a 7/32 star/hex head (IIRC). Screw that off and disconnect the wire clip, then your new mirror should fit right on.

I'd like to replace my 2 door mirrors in my 2005 mercedes E500 wagon, with newer and larger 2008 E350 door mirrors, will they fit? since the body style did not change from 2005 to 2008. thank

You will have to measure the outside points of your mirror and the ones you want to put on. If they match, then the most you have to do is drill holes for the bolt patterns.

Pretty sure the mirror switch is the culprit(I'm assuming the joystick and selector switch are all one piece).

99.5 Jetta Interior Noise

If the door panel has never been removed then it could possibly be a bad speaker.

Being a 99 model it could also have a plastic liner under neath the door panel that has dry rotted and needs to be removed.

I'd place my wager on the speaker though.

If the panel has been removed check to make sure that you don't have any broken clips that attatch your door panel to the door.

Passenger side mirror

On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and disconnect the wiring for your controls. Then you can access the bolts that secure the mirror onto the door
