How to Install a Mirror on a 2007 Dodge Caravan

Car mirrors can suffer a lot of damage throughout the life of an automobile. When a mirror is beyond repair, the entire mirror must be replaced. Knowing how to install a mirror on a 2007 Dodge Caravan can spare Caravan owners time and expense.

Instructions

    1

    Pry off the panel where the mirror attaches to the vehicle with a small standard screwdriver. This will expose the screws attaching the mirror to the vehicle.

    2

    Remove the two exposed screws attaching the mirror to the vehicle with a T27 Torx driver.

    3

    Open the door next to the mirror you are replacing. This will expose the third and final screw attaching the mirror to the vehicle.

    4

    Unscrew the final screw with a T27 Torx driver. Some mirrors designed for a 2007 Dodge Caravan have an internal heating element with a cable attaching it to the vehicles electrical system. With this type of mirror, press the release tab on the cable connector and pull the cables apart before removing the mirror.

    5

    Lift the mirror to be replaced away from the vehicle.

    6

    Hold the replacement mirror in place against the vehicle so the screw holes in the mirror base and vehicle align. If the vehicles mirror has an internal heating element, first attach the replacement mirrors cable to the vehicles mirror cable before holding the replacement mirror in place.

    7

    Screw the screws into the three holes of the mirror base with a T27 Torx driver.

    8

    Replace the panel where the mirror attaches to the vehicle by sliding it into place and pressing firmly.
