Touring Package Side Mirror Question?

Touring/base side mirrors cover

I have the same model like yours, Matrix Touring package, just only here in Canada! Anyway, those side mirror covers are made of ABS plastic and it's easy to detach. There's about three claws on the top and two bigger claw in the bottom part. To remove that, just pry it with your little bit longer finger nail starting from the top until you heard a click and then after prying the top part, just push it up from the bottom and then pull right away. I took a picture of it, I will upload it as soo as I find it out.
It took less than 10 secs.:thumbsup:

Thank you revredline for your reply. I look forward to seeing that pic when you find it. I will give that a try. Did you paint yours? Or did you replace them with factory painted units?

Got them off with ease. I was surprised how easy!! I used some 400 grit sandpaper to scuff them up and found some plasti-cote touch up spray. The touch up spray is an Acrylic Lacquer and hardens quickly. The Super White II is a perfect match to my Alpine White(040).

They look great. I just need to buff them and wax. :chug:

refused to paint the side mirrors cap due to different plastic material, paints wont stick and it will peel off in the future. The original plastic cover are $63.00 each, i.e. from Xr model.
