Dirver side mirror broke today

On the way to work today, I noticed that my driver side mirror housing was broken. It was flapping in the wind. What do I need in order to change out the mirror? Right now, the part that attaches to the rodeo is on the car with a metal post sticking up. The whole plastic compartment tha the mirror sits in came off. Thanks.

How do i replace a broken driver side mirror on a 2010 mitsubishi galant?

You don't say if it's just the glass mirror that's broke or is the housing cracked as well.
If it's just the glass mirror, it's held in place by double-faced adhesive tape. You can buy a replacement from a dealer or on-line. To get the old one lose, heat the glass with a hair dryer while pulling on the glass with a hooked tool.

2003 GMC sierra side view mirror glass replacement

That dependso on if the housing itself is broken then yes. If the face plate that is attached to the mirror itself is flapping around then maybe. If it is just the mirror, just go to your neighborhood auto glass shop and but a "Ready-Cut" mirror for a small amount of money. they come already cut to fit perfectly. As for removing the old glass, take a very small flat screw driver and pry the glass away from the face plate. Once completely cleaned out use the adhesive from the ready cut and place them on the face plate. Next press the new mirror onto the flace pate, being careful not to press to hard or it will snap it in half.

I need to replace my driver side mirror, cause broke

For paint, take your paint code off the inside lip of your dirver side door. Take the number to your local autoparts store, and get the matching paints (unless you need a custom job as in metallic flake). You'll need a clear coat as well as your base.e0fde83.jpg

How do i remove and replace the driver's side mirror?

If the metal pivot arm is not broken you can just replace the glass and plastic housing. To remove the glass you tilt the glass down towards the floor and use a wide plastic or wood bladed object to prise from behind, the glass should pop off from its clips. Remember to catch it if its not damaged. To remove the housing once the glass is out you need to look underneath the mirror unit, there you will find a small plastic bung, gently prise it out and then use a long small flat bladed screwdriver straight up inside the hole and lever towards the front of the car whilst lifting straight up on the plastic housing, this should then lift off. To replace just slot the new housing on and click into place then fit the glass back, remember to connect the wires first if it is a heated glass.
If the metal pivot arm is broken then you will find the remaining screws behind the plastic trim inside the vehicle.
