Replacing Side Mirrors

Well the shiny plastic that has pretended to be a mirror for the last year is about to be replaced by a new mirror assembly.

I'm not sure how to go about replacing the mirror assembly, and since the internet knows everything I hoped that someone here would know what to do!

any knowledge is appreciated
thanks

For the Fox- it has been a while since I replaced my passenger side mirror. It was a power mirror at that too. All I recall doing was removing the little trangle piece on the inside of the door, then there are 2-3 nuts that hold the mirror assembly in. After you undo those, the assembly should just wiggle out (unless you had a power mirror, then you would also disconnect the wiring too). Hope that helps. And that is for the whole assembly, not just the part the mirror itself is attached to.

As above but the connector does not reach when you pull the mirror and most of the time you have to remove the door panel to access the plug...
