Default C7 mirror glass replacement

Just a heads up on mirror glass replacement. Had my passenger side mirror damaged mirror glass was broken away from mirror. You don’t have to replace the whole mirror. Bought the glass and motor (actuator)from dealer. Also you don’t have to take the door panel of to do this. The whole process took about 10 minutes. Believe me for me to do this it’s a simple fix.

Glass was $107.36 that’s Canadian dollars should be less in American dollars.

Nice THANKS. Have some scratches on one so I'll likely swap it.

They scratch if you breathe on them. I need to replace both sides due to fine scratches. Tried to polish out but it didn't do much.

can not polish them, any kind of polish will introduce micro scratches.. The only thing I use on them is foam window cleaner and a micro towel..

First of the year a deer torpedoed my 2018 F-450 pick-up in the passenger side crew cab doors. Also a small dent in the right front of the trucks bed. $7,100.00 to repair like new.

Repairs included 2 new doors, pull the dent and repaint the entire passenger side of the two tone paint on the King Ranch model truck. Truck looked great when all fixed. Didn't cost me a dime as I carry zero deductible on my rigs.
