Expert: William Forster - 6/21/2007


Question
the mirror is snapped and hanging by the wires. this is a 2000 mustange. there is a speaker on the inside at the same place where the screws are for the mirror. i don't know how to replace this mirror.

Answer
Patti, have someone who knows what they are doing take off the door panel. As memory serves, you can't get off the speaker/mirror access cover without removing the door panel. Interior panels are easily broken, and can have hidden screws and fasteners that will break the panel if not removed before yanking like crazy in the panel. Seen it a hundred times. bill
