How to Replace an Outside Mirror on a 1994 Chevy

As with most late-model vehicles, the outside mirrors on a 1994 Chevy utilize three threaded posts attached to the mirror assembly to secure the mirror to the side of the door from the inside. This design allows the manufacturer to attach the mirrors quickly during the build process. If you need to replace the mirror, you can take advantage of the fact that the bolts are easy to access and quick to remove.

Instructions

    1

    Locate the triangular access panel located on the inside of the door. The panel is on the opposite side of the mirror assembly. To remove the panel, pull it out.

    2

    Remove the three mounting bolts behind the access panel with a socket. Hold the mirror in place, when removing the final bolt, to keep the mirror from falling off the door.

    3

    Place threaded studs onto the new mirror assembly through the holes in the door and secure the mirror by tightening the three mounting nuts with the socket.

    4

    Replace the triangular access panel onto the door and lock it into position by pushing on it.
