    The install is really simple. We are blessed with having the absolutely easiest door panels to remove. Remove the inside door handle, take the couple screws out holding the door panel in place, lift up on the panel and that will disengage it from the hooks, unplug window switch. Unplug the mirror electrical connector and unbolt the mirror. Reinstall in reverse order.

    It's been a while since I did the mirrors, but I thought you could do them without taking the whole panel off? Just in bolt that small triangle piece by the window. All plugs, etc should be behind.

    Maybe I took my panel off, don't remember. I wouldn't behind the panel back if it needed to be moved. Been a while.
