I just recieved my white OEM mirrors and door handles. I want to have them put on is this hard? Anyone done it or now how?

The mirrors are easy to put on, I'm not sure about the door handles.

the mirrors are not easy, they're a b1tch...

taking off the door panel is easy, but putting back on takes a lot of time and patience, 2 things I dont have...

after you've take off the door panel one or twice
i should flow smoothly....other than that....your arm
might be sore from bending and holding in awkward
positions

like vinh said.


but it would be great to have another person helping you out. the door panel is huge and pretty hard to manuever into/out of the door from. But just take your time so you don't damage anything.

I've taken my door panels apart many times. See the Speaker installation DIY here , and I also have some pictures in my DIY gallery here

I too have taken my door pannel off more times then I can count. This is the reason I refered to it as "easy". After you have the pannel off, the only thing involved in taking the mirrors off is 3 screws. Thats it. Then they just fall out. If you have any problems, pm me and I can give you more detail.
Good luck!

*****HEY READ ME*****

You can take that triangular piece of plastic on the other side of the door from the side view mirrors, without taking the whole door panel off. Just pop it off carefully.

If you leave that piece on while taking off/putting back on the door panel, it might get damaged (scraped by the sharp edge of the door panel). Take it off first, and put it back on last.

*****Thanks and good luck*****
