Same as any 2000 and 2004. The only tool you need is a 13 millimeter socket with a ratchet and an extension.
We're replacing power mirror, on this vehicle has power mirror but replacing mirrors on this car is pretty easy. You just want to pull off this piece of trim. Pull it out and then back. You can see here is the test power mirror. It's my current lead. Push this little tab here, and remove the lid. Push the lid down this here, the store panel. Now, it's a 13 millimeter socket with a ratchet extension. Remove the bolt, slowly pull your mirror off.
You want to carefully either you can see my bolt didn't come out. That's okay. You just want to make sure you push it in there. It doesn't pull down the door. Push the lid out. There's the mirror off. You can see my gasket tore. One outer mirror to go in they have the same connection. You got to come with a new gasket as well. Reinstalling is just the reverse. What I'm going to do is I'm going to put this in. I'm going to push my harness connecting screw. It goes down to a lower hole.
Then it comes up. Okay. Now, what I'm going to use because my bolt is still in there. I'm going to put my socket and extension in. Move along to the bolt and put my mirror into place. Start tightening the bolt. Make sure it got a hold of the mirror. Make sure my harness is all the way through. Tighten up this bolt. You want firm but not too tight. Okay. Now you have your power mirrors. You want to back of this in first. Okay, push it forward and lock it on. That's all there is to it.
