Re: Original Mirror Glass Replacement

One important fact I forgot to mention. Getting the glass out of the Buick housing is cake without hurting it. Constructed totally different than our trucks. Big plastic back housing with a smaller plastic front bezel that is snap fit into the back. Just needs to be pried off and you have straight-on access to pry the mirror off the back housing. It was secured by a rubbery/foamy adhesive that gave up pretty easily.

Thanks for the valuable addition to the thread and the kind words. I am going to try this myself.
