Steps
Remove the mirror trim and unplug the harness

Remove the original mirror
Support the mirror from outside the door while removing its three 8 mm mounting nuts. Release the connector clips and guide the mirror assembly out of the door without dropping the nuts into the panel.
Install the replacement mirror
Route the replacement mirror harness through the opening and seat the mirror against the door. Install and tighten the three mounting nuts evenly, then reconnect the mirror electrical plug.
Refit trim and verify mirror operation
Align the triangular trim panel and press its clips into place. Turn on the ignition and test mirror adjustment before closing the door, confirming the mirror is secure and the wiring is not pinched.
