CF Wing Mirror Problem

2 Attachment(s)

Hi, I bought a set of CF mirror covers. However, I am having trouble removing the light strip off the original to transfer to the CF mirror.

It only seems to open on one side.

The side seems welded lol.

I just did this mod. Remove the two screws from the light strip. Undo the two clips. The ends of the blinker light strips are glued to the mirror cover. I gently pulled until is could separate the strip from the glue. A hair dryer helps.

OP, where'd you buy this from?

You need to remove the screws and heat up the middle part which goes into the blinker. It's glued on with double-sided tape.

Matt,

Is it fairly easy to remove the lens on the 08-09 mirrors once the cover is off?

Yes, it's just screws and double-sided tape. Very easy, just ne careful no to break any brackets.
