This is a simple step by step guide with a lot of pictures of how to replace your broken mirror and broken glass. I read on another thread that you needed to remove the door panel to access the mirror post. Not true. I am no authority but I just thought since I was an idiot maybe there are some other idiots who could read this and think its really not that hard. Cause its not.
Last week my mirror began swinging around the post like a drunk square dancer. It turns out the clip that holds the mirror to the post finally wore out and gave way. Upon trying to repair this, I also dropped the mirror glass and shattered it. So I ordered some glass from Toyota for 60.00 and the mirror housing with spring loaded post still engaged from landcruiserman in Oregon for 20+11 for shipping. The entire mirror unit from Toyota is 300.00 without the glass.
I am no pro so if anyone wants to chime in on a step I missed or any tricks for better results please feel free.
