Hey guys welcome back to the channel, this is Rolando from Revemoto.
Today we're going to be doing a 2008 Toyota Avalon
passenger side, side view mirror installation.
Alright guys, so we are going to need a 10mm socket wrench with an extension.
We're going to open the door,
And the first thing we're going to notice on here
is going to be the cover.
So you remove the cover.
Just like that.
So, right here is an indication that we don't have to remove the door panel.
The actual wires are exposed.
Therefore, all you need to do is un-clip it.
And then you remove these screws.
So, the first thing I like to do is remove the screws first.
And then un-clip it so the mirror doesn't fall off the actual base
Alright, lets try that now.
So there is going to be 3 screws (nuts), 10mm.
Basically, you're going to support the mirror wit your hand.
Unplug by pushing down on this pin right here
Unplug it.
Just like that
and then pull the mirror off.
Here ya go.
Let me get that other mirror and we're going to install that one.
Alright guys, so here is our brand new mirror right here.
And our old mirror right here.
As you can see on this mirror right here, it doesn't have this weather stripping.
Most of the mirrors we sell you guys, does have the weather stripping.
But again, if yours does not have one you can reuse your old one, or get a brand new one at the dealership.
Okay.
Let's go ahead, this one doesn't have it
We're going to take of this one, it's very easy.
Just like that.
Put this to the side.
Go ahead and reinstall this one on this one, right here.
So, push down on it.
Just like that.
There you go.
It's back on.
On the installation process on this one
you want to line up the bolts with this holes.
And also, this is guide point right here.
You want to line all that up.
Just like that.
Then I like to go ahead and plug it up.
With this plug right here.
Go ahead and line it up.
There we go.
Then I usually like to plug it back up first.
So, in case the mirror does fall, it doesn't fall all the way back down.
Alright,
Same process as removing it, we're going to put the bolts back in.
I like to hand tighten it first.
So, lets not over tighten it.
Go ahead and tighten up the other bolts.
Alright, so, before you tighten all the bolts up completely.
I like to look.
(check) If the mirror is flush.
Making sure there are not obstacles from preventing it from going flush.
This one looks like it's going to be flush.
once we tighten it up.
So, you just want to hand tighten it, not over tighten it
because if you do over tighten it, there is tendency, break these, umm...
lug nuts or these (threaded) screws off of the actual mirror.
Just hand tighten it and you should be fine.
Go ahead and put the cover back on.
Just like that, there you go.
Alright, so the next, next thing you're going to do
is get a friend or someone to see if the mirror is actually moving or functioning correctly.
(OR on your own) Turn on the car and make sure its functioning correctly.
That's what I am going to do right now.
Alright, so the mirror functions correctly
everything is put back to place.
so now the customer is ready to go.
