hey guys rolando from revemoto so today we're going to be doing a removal of a 2010 toyota prius
side view mirror if you guys like this video go ahead and like subscribe and
turn on that push notification and also if you guys need this mirror for your vehicle
you can also purchase at revemoto.com your pre-painted auto body part source so let's
get started so a couple simple tools we're going to be needing it's going to be a fly head
maybe a flathead screwdriver right there a screwdriver like that
and a socket wrench with a 10-millimeter socket all right so we can go ahead and open the door
so on this vehicle right here you're going to have to remove the cover plate
so if you guys come right here there's a plate right there so all you just remove it
probably easier on top
just take that off put it to the side and you have like three bolts right here
but as you can see there's like this long wire if you pull it out
it's stuck back there so you got to take off the door panel
all right so take off the door panel you gotta take this cover off
so get a flathead and they'll come right off like that
then get your screwdriver and take that off
then like right in here here's another screw
go ahead and take that off
there you go and then we're gonna go ahead and pry it off
and see if uh do it gently see if there's anything getting stuck so go to one corner
pull it like that go to the other corner
pull it off like that
so i feel like it's getting stuck let me see
oh okay so you just kind of pull up and then to the side like that
and then you know for video purposes i'm gonna go ahead and take it off a little bit long
take it off like that all right so if you guys come around this side right here
you guys can see there's a cover right here and this wire goes all the way from inside
the uh door panel all the way to this hook right here so we're gonna take off this little panel
alright guys so 10 millimeters right here go ahead and take it off
and that's how it looks go ahead and take this cover off
like that and then before you unhook it go ahead and take off the bolts
all right so we're going to go ahead and take off these 10 millimeters right here so again don't
take off the wire just yet because you don't want the uh savvy mirror to fall down so go ahead and
unloosen it
and once you're loosened you can actually take your fingers and just go ahead and untighten it
i know some people are gonna ask me why i'm not using impact gun
it's because uh i can use it if you have it use it you go by it go by a lot faster to taking it off
but just for you know general purposes that people don't have impact guns here and there
they usually have like your regular socket wrench so that's what i'm using
so right there it's already trying to fall off just hold it up take off that last bolt
alright so go to the other side and you can just go ahead and wiggle it off
so you can go ahead and wiggle it off like that but continue to hold it
and then with your other hand
take off that plug and then slide it out
like that all right so to put it back on all you do is slide the
slide that wire back in so make sure you go behind the uh if you guys go back here
i can show you to go behind the panel so remember insert it in there
and then grab it that little hole right here
again once you guys have it go ahead and hook it up so just in case that the side view mirror falls
it doesn't completely fall down the floor there you go so you should hear that click
then you see this guide point right here it's a little guide
so you take that and it should go right here okay so guide it right there
oh this one right here apologize for this one right here then guide it in there
continue to hold it and then come back here
and you should go ahead and use your fingers
tighten it up
alright again if you guys have that impact gun
this is not the time to use it so you don't want to
tighten it too much because you're going to break that stud remember this is made out of plastic
and all that's holding is like plastic pieces so you don't want to break that stud or it's going to
break the whole mirror and it's unusable at that time so use a wrench tighten it up on one side
so when you feel it like kind of uh tighten up just put like one little
twist not too much then go to the next one
there you go the next one
and there you go so that's all you need you don't want to put too much pressure on it
that might break the mirror then you can actually like kind of wiggle the mirror
and you know it's dirty okay so now i'm gonna go ahead and put everything back in place
all right so i forgot before you actually uh put the whole thing back together make
sure you turn on the car and all the features work so make sure the mirror goes left to right
up and down and also if it has a turn signal make sure you have that uh turn signal working okay
all right so now we're going to put that cover back on
there you go and then with this this door panel right here
it goes over first this little ledge right here so that little ledge you put it over
like that you press down it and if something like this falls like that let's go ahead and find it
and it's right here and just clip it into place like that okay so now
go ahead and align the the door panel and if you line it up correctly
you push it down like that it should click into place you're gonna hear that click and that
identifies that that door the door panel is in place or you can kind of wiggle it
this is not coming off so now you're good so go ahead and put those screws back into place
but there's gonna be actually about the same size i thought there was something different but
you can't go wrong with either screw
tighten it up
put the cover back in place
you should hear it snap like that and then kind of press on it it should be should be good to go
last one right here
so
and then last but not least go ahead and put that last cover in place
