Lift up and remove the window switch and unplug all four electrical connectors, and remove the panel from the truck.

To remove the power mirror switch, you can do this by hand, I like to use a tool just because it's a little bit easier, and that can be a screwdriver or a pick or whatever you have handy.

Just push those tabs in and push out on the switch, and remove your old switch from the panel.

Install your new switch by lining it up and snapping it into place.

Reconnect all the switches in your panel, line up the tabs and snap it back into place.

Why you Should Replace Not Restore Headlights

See why replacing your cloudy headlights with new ones is always better than refinishing them Why should you replace your headlights and not clean or refinish them? Three reasons: It's a simple fix, it increases visibility, and it enhances the overall look of your vehicle. Headlights are made from a polycarbonate plastic that can be damaged by UV rays from the sun or suffer pitting caused by road debris light salt and rocks. If you look closely at an old set of headlights, you'll see that the lens is full of micro-cracks. This is called crazing. This crazing, along with pinning, will turn your headlights from crystal clear to hazy yellow and it cuts the output in half, making it very difficult to see at night. It also makes your car look old and dated. With parts from 1AAuto.com and our how-to videos, you can make your vehicle look new and stay safe on the road. To get new headlights for your vehicle, visit 1AAuto.com and visit our YouTube page for do-it-yourself and how-to videos.
