Follow-up on mirror replacement
I did get the mirror assembly out with a screw accessed from underneath. That was easy enough.
But, I see now why Toyota dealer here said they don't do that, cuz too many mirrors break installing it.
The double back tape is easy to apply the mirror to the assembly.
The trouble came trying to get the mirror underneath the exterior banding that holds it on. It is a hard rubber like trim, and wouldn't bend enough to get the glass all the way underneath it. The glass wold have broken forcing it.
So .... I took the assembly off of the door, brought it inside, and heated it with my GF's blow dryer. Wham Bham, it went in, recessed under the trim, just like it's supposed to look.
Thanks for the help,
Ken
