Do any Z's have them stock or will I need to get midevil on it? If midevilness is required, any idea on how to remove the mirror in one peice? I was thinking that if it was standard on touring models then the wiring might already be there. Thus alowing me to get by with only being evil. Let me tell you, midevil is no picnic.....no picnic at all bother.
TIA

no z comes with it stock so i'm sure there's no wiring there already. the hard part would be putting a reflector in there and making it look good. the wiring would not be difficult. if you open the car door you'll see there is a peice of plastic on the inside of the door where the mirror attaches. if you pop that off you should be able to reveal some screws (probably 3) that hold the mirror to the car. unscrew them and the mirror should pull off the car in one peice. there is probably a connector in there somewhere. =)

 

First off, thanks for your reply. I was talking about the actuall glass part of the mirror. I understand what your saying about getting the sail off and removing the mirror as an assembly, but after that I still need to get behind the glass. Preferably with out breaking it.

 

Here's how to remove the mechanism from the housing - straight from the service manual.....

DISASSEMBLY
1. Place the mirror body with mirror glass facing upward.
2. Put strip of protective tape on mirror body.
3. As shown in the figure insert a small slotted screwdriver into the
recess between mirror base (mirror holder) and mirror holder
bracket and push up tabs (2) to remove mirror holder lower half
side.
NOTE:
When pushing up tabs do not attempt to use 1 recess only, be sure
to push up with both recesses.
Insert screwdriver into recesses, and push up while rotating (twist) to
make work easier.
4. Remove terminal (2) of mirror heater attachment.
5. Lightly lift up lower side of mirror surface from mirror surface, and detach clips (2) of upper side as if pull-ing
it out. Remove mirror surface from mirror body.

 

NOTE:
Be certain not to allow grease on sealing agent in center of mirror body assembly (actuator) or back side of
mirror surface (mirror holder).
ASSEMBLY
1. Place mirror holder bracket and mirror body assembly (actuator) in a horizontal position.
2. Connect terminal (2) of heater installed mirror.
3. Fit the upper tabs (2) on the mirror face onto the mirror holder
bracket first, then press the lower side of mirror face until a click
sound is heard to engage the lower tabs.
NOTE:
After installation, visually check that lower tabs (2) are securely
engaged from the bottom of mirror face.

 

That is EXACTLY what I wanted to know. Thanks million. This place rocks!
