Side Mirror

[mmagnus]

I have been working on breaking down the body on my 240 but cant figure how to take off the mirror. I am sure its probably realy easy and I am just not seeing it. Interior door panel is off but there is no exposure to screws.

Please help

Mark,

The only comforable way to remove the stock mirror is after removing the glass. You'll find a 13 mm nut holding the mirror in place.

Hey Mark,

Keep looking it is in there! As previously mentioned it is hard to get to. The only original 240 mirror I have removed was on a door that was off the car and I removed all the door internals first. With some creativity and if you take your time you could probably get it out without removing everything.

Have fun!

As 240Z indicates, or his Link, I should say; It is fairly easy to remove the mirror. The key is to have the window in the rolled up position, with the moisture barrier plastic pealed back or removed, and the door open so that you can reach up through the hole in the inner door panel with a socket attached to an extension. Like most things, Once you've done it, you'll realize how simple it is.

Good Luck with your project!
