all you need to do is just remove plastic covers that are on the inside of the door, then you will see 3 screws remove them but be becareful, then just pull or old mirrors off and the the opposite to fit new mirrors.

this is how you do manual mirrors matey so might be differnt if you have auto mirrors smileys/smiley14.gif

yeh its easy to fit but the aftermarket backing plates are shit! they seem to go over the seal so if you tighten them up too much the windows struggle to open! smileys/smiley5.gif

You will have manual mirrors so there just a straight swap sp there are no wires smileys/smiley2.gif
