One word of warning, be careful when removing the door panel. Make sure the 9 clips are detached before pulling the door panel. These clips can easily break, need a special tool to remove when broken and are not cheap!

The DIY looks professional. This looks very difficult to do. We should have a gather up to have this install together. Since many people from the Bay Area just got the new JDM mirrors.

Awesome

But hopefully these pictures are uploaded somewhere where they won't be erased/deleted.
