Side view mirror removal
#2
I don't, but I am curious as to why you would want to do this.

I read somewhere that the glass just pops out/in, or do you mean the entire mirror? I'd like to replace my passenger side mirror glass because in the light, it looks like it's covered in spider web like cracks. And I checked, glass is not warranted.

Once you have the interior of the door off, if I remember, the mirrors looked to be pretty straightforward to remove. I highly recommend a metal trim removal tool though to get the door panel off.

I've done it to replace the OEM mirror housings with carbon fiber ones. Its not terribly difficult, but its easy to drop small screws and fasteners into areas where its very difficult to retrieve them. Its also awkward to get to the three nuts that secure the mirror base to the door. That's accessed through the large hole that the main speaker was removed from. Its a long reach with a swivel ratchet and extension, and its a 'blind' reach as well.
