Had a tiny accident with my left side (drivers side) view mirror on my 2020 Ranger XLT. Anyone have any experience replacing these? Found a replacement part online for pretty cheap at $118, but I couldn’t find videos about replacing these /any manuals for this online. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

See my thread How to add Lariat heated mirrors to an XLT
Be careful when you tighten the screws! I did not look up the torque, but as I mention I ad 1 new mirror and the screes are self tapping. maybe for locking. But the material they thread into is very soft and could be stripped easily .
Its an easy swap.
Let me know if you have questions
