Side View Mirror Replacement

Wife backed of garage and broke the passenger side mirror housing.
Mirror still folds in/out but glass popped out of clips.
I cannot figure out how to get glass back in or else, I would make her live with it.
Are there any isntructions on mirror glass install?
OR
Anyone recommend how to buy mirror assembly?

k, found it, i found this on u-tube, it is for a ml500(w164), worked perfect for our 08 450(x164). i did not install new mirrors just removed mirror and reinstalled to figure out why our mirror pops 3 times after folding. if you want to watch go to u-tube and type this in search window...


Change Right Door Mirror Cover with Light Indicator for W164 Mercedes


after your done watching it should be a breeze...hope this helps

On a related note, has anyone updated the mirrors to new style that came on 2010+ models? The mirrors on my truck are my biggest gripe. They are small and ugly. Would love to upgrade to newer style.
