i have the stock power mirrors. at this point i don't want to buy sport mirrors cuz i don't wanna spend the money and i like my big viewing area. me and my friends are gunna try to paint the stock ones. does anybody know how to take them off without messing them up? and the wiring for the power should just be a simple plug right? any help is appreciated

 

how about just cover the area around it the newspapers and tape? that way you dont have to remove the mirrors at all...

but if you do want to, i think you just remove the door panels and the triangular shape cover adjacent to the mirror and you should have some nuts to unscrew. probably like 3 or so. i took mine of my 98 s-10 when i had them, so i dont think it would be much different. wasnt too hard either...

 

covering the areas around the mirrors isn't an option since we use a spray gun and we're outdoors. we'd either have to cover the entire truck or get paint all over the body, windows, and mirrors. that's what we were thinking about to take them off. just trying to get some more knowledgeable opinions befor we start cracking off pieces.

 

Crazyidiot, it is not as difficult as is might sound. Open the door and there's a triangle trim piece behind the mirror. There are 2 clips holding it in, just pull it firmly until the 2 clips are released, then pull up and remove it. Now pull the foam piece out and there are 3 nuts holding the mirror and the power plug is right between the nuts. Post some pics when you get them painted.

 

thanks for the info. will try on the pics but last time we tryed my buddies digital camera was fugged up.
