All i say was "someone took a bat to my" from the main page, i thought the car wouldve been seriously ****ed up like the car from Road Trip.

GOod thing its just the mirror.

In general, mirrors are really easy to replace, some cars you gotta take the door panel off, some you dont, dont know about the S.

After you get the cover/door panel off, just take out the bolts, unhook the wires, and reverse.

Most cases though..

Looks good on black cars

ya, in most cases its a chick who does this kind of stuff.

for two reasons, one a guy knows that you would take a bat to their knee caps for this bs. and two cause a guy would have more respect for a car.

thats why you need to never piss chicks off, and if you do, make sure that you car is in a safe place at all times

Yep, 3 nuts (10mm if I remember correctly?) which secures 3 bolts behind the mirror after removing the door panel. Don't forget to unplug the harness...

that sounds simple enough, hopefully I can find a write-up or diagram of it though.

Oh and I forgot to mention, you need to get one of your female friend(s) to help you with the install due to the tight area. I've done it before but ended up with a few scratches/cuts...
