i couldn't find any information on how to adjust or replace the side mirror and i didn't wanna just start unscrewing it incase those screws had bolts on the back and i lost those in the door panel when they fell.
do you just unscrew or do you have to take the panel off? mirror doesn't adjust because its rusted or too tight. |

I recommend putting some PB Blaster on the nut and letting it soak a little bit. If you get in a hurry, the pot metal has been known to break leaving the mirror useless. You can also take the plastic trim(AA has new ones if you break it)off the mirror and remove the glass. Remove plastic liner and spray the pivot nut.
