   you can just pull the interior panel off (the one that has the knob so u can move the mirror with)
   Then i think its just a case of unscrewing the wing mirrors and putting the new ones on
   
   Hope that helps

   You will have to remove the door card off because you won't be able to reach one of the screws to unscrew the mirror, you'll have to buy new door card clips aswell as when you pull the door card off most of the clips break.

   this is true
   
   there are 3 screws holding the mirror on, and one of them is slightly under the door card.. altho..
   
   you can just take the screw out of the door card and pull that edge away from the door to get to the mirror screw..
   
   you dont need to take the whole card off.. did one of mine literally 3 days ago. lol

   And unscrew the moving knob thing too, and make sure you're supporting the mirror after last screw or its smashy smashy
