Question Side Mirror Installation Instructions???

Anybody have side mirror removal/installation instructions? I just bought some carbon fiber mirror housings.

Thanks...

Nevermind...just found this on Renntech

FYI
Unclip the mirror glass, disconnect the heater wires, and there are 3 torx screws which hold the cover onto the mirror frame. Once you get these out it lifts off - watch you don't lose the rubber seal strip underneath.

Here you go.

MAcarbon Porsche 996/Boxster Installation Instructions


1. Adjust the mirror (using the switch) to its innermost point. The left corner of

the mirror should be protruding or at the edge of the housing.
2. Place your finger between the mirror and the housing and gently pull out.
3. With the mirror out, remove the three screws that hold the housing to the
mirror arm.
4. Remove the old housing from the car.
5. Place carbon housing on the car.
6. Insert and tighten the three screws.


7. Place the mirror panel back into the motor. Be sure that it is secure.
