Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks!
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace a side rear view mirror on this 2003 Mercury Mountaineer. Pretty much the same for a 2002 to 2005 Mountaineer. We'll show you the driver side, but the passenger side is the same procedure. The items you'll need for this is a new side mirror from 1AAuto.com, flat blade screwdriver, and a 7mm and 11mm socket and ratchet with an extension.
You want to make sure that your courtesy lights don't stay on so you don't drain our battery, so just make sure you turn those off. Pry out from the bottom of this panel with a flat blade screwdriver, and just slide the panel towards the front of the vehicle and off the door handle. Then lift up on the front of your switch panel and then slide it forward and up, and then just push the tabs on these harnesses and disconnect them. For this last one, you're going to want to use a flat blade screwdriver and just push in on the tab and pull it free. Your switch panel is free.
Now, you want to remove this 7mm bolt and these two 7mm bolts right here, and we'll just fast-forward as Mike does that. Pry out the switch, pry out the tab on the harness, disconnect the harness, and just feed that back through the door panel. Lift the door panel up, pull it back, then just push the tab on this harness to disconnect it and your door panel is free.
Carefully remove this panel, and you could see Mike uses a razor blade to separate the adhesive. We'll just fast forward as he does this. Now push the tab on the harness, pull it free, and then remove these three 11mm nuts. Be careful as you're removing them. Try to keep the nuts in the socket, and pull them up that way so you don't drop them down into the door. Now the mirror will just pull free.
On the left is the old side mirror; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same. Take your new side mirror and push it into place, and then just replace those three 11mm nuts and tighten them up. Connect the harness and then push that cover back into place.
To replace your door panel, just reconnect this harness, and make sure you push the harness for your mirror switch through. Then push the door panel into place and slide it down. We'll fast forward as Mike replaces those three 7mm bolts and tightens them up. Reconnect the switch and push it back into place. Then reconnect your switch panel, slide the back end first, and then push the front end down. Then slide this panel back over the door handle and push those tabs into place. Then push in the front and you're all set.
