Rodman | Left side mirror repair | ||

Nice website! I'm new here and I have a 94 coupe in Black Rose.
A screw apparently came out of the left side mirror inside the bezel and now it shakes badly. I can't figure out how to get the mirror glass off to access the mechanism inside. I took the mirror off of the door thinking there might be a screw underneath that holds the whole mechanism in, but no such luck. Does anyone know how to get it apart? I don't want to break anything. Thanks for your help. |

welcome aboard!!!
As you can see, traffic is a bit slow here... but we are working on that. I woulda thought there was a screw on the bottom to hold the internals inside. However, I have never had a problem with my mirrors. I will check my Helms manual and post again later on (tomorrow afternoon). a. |

Gordon Killebrew did this on my 87 to switch the glass from my garage sproinged mirror to my replacement mirror housing: He placed his thumb and fingers around the edges of the glass and just pulled it toward him. It took some effort but just popped right off!. After he had installed the new housing in my door and hooked up the wires he pushed the mirror back onto its trunion until it shattered - yes he broke it!! I was at Bloomington at the time so found a replacement and he snapped that one in with no problem (whew). So I would advise gentle pressure when doing this. I'll bet you will find a broken plastic part rattling around inside. I like to use Jason at www.vette2vette.com for replacement parts if you need them.
Keep us posted. |
