Which manual offers better advice on how to replace a mirror? Haynes or Chilton.

Also, my windshield cleaners stopped working all of a sudden any idea what the problem could be (it's not empty)?

 

Do you mean that liquid is not coming out of either of the sprayers?

 

wat mirrior? rear view or side view? both are really ez to do , u dont really need a manual

 

a little bit comes out of sprayers (lacks pressure)

 

passenger mirror.

 

Here ya go:


Open the door, pop off the plastic triangle piece, you'll find couple hex bolts behind. I think that's all.

to change that mirror pull of door panel, and than the triangle piece in black has a bolt to it and than behind the triangle are 3 10mm bolts. took me literally 5 mins

 

It's been so long since I've been in my car, I forgot the door panel has to come off first. Thanx for the correction!

 

thanks guys.

 

How do you like your new m3 mirrors with side blinkers? j/k. did u replace w/stock?

 

check to see if the sprayer is block up.

 

naw man, some inbred f*ggot tried to get back on the highway and crossed the exit lane, and almost hit me, luckily I reacted and switched lanes to avoid collision, but not soon enough to save my mirror. oh well, it could've went a lot worse.

 

Oh crap! that sucks. Well, mine was broke when I let someone borrow my car, they're the type of person who backs up by looking out the back window, instead of using mirrors... clipped the driver side mirror... I'm surprised the mirror didn't flip backwards, unless the driver was really gunning it!

Does the panel just pop out or are there any screws or bolts I should look for (i've never removed the door panel on my Maxima before).

 

hey my driver side view mirror has a spider crack on it and needs to be replaced.. how do people usually replace these mirros? do they just pop right out?

 

The triangle panel appears to have a single bolt holding it in.

It's spelled out in the FSM.

 

awesome thanks a lot for your help! i almost bought a whole new side view replacement.. lol..

 

I forgot all about my FSM! thanks.

 

I bought a whole new thing for $58 I think. Partstrain.com

 

for which side?

 

Driver. Black shell, and ok mirror. The motor that turns the mirror's way louder than before, and I had increased wind noise after installation, but not bad. Oh and the plastic seems thinner and more flexible. If you're on a budget, it's good. If you want the best, Get it from the dealership.

 

Oh yeah, non-heated

It looks like Dorman has one for $95, and they usually have quality OEM products. Maybe try theirs. The local dealership wanted $150-200, and it only comes in black. Or you can try www.car-parts.com if you want matching color.

 

lol that sucks b/c mine is white.. eh i guess im just going to pop the mirror out and replace it..

 

Mine's white too, and only 1 person has ever noticed the other side is black.

 

Anyone knows where I can purchase the mirror and not the mirror with the casing? thanks
