I was sitting in the house today, another day waiting for the headlights to arrive, I started thinking I should do something to '03 Red Ranger.
I did some work on the Raptor Grille Light System and decided to see just how hard it would be to remove the Mirror Glass.
I got out the Heat Gun, some Painter Tape, and a long Flat Blade Screwdriver, at least what I thought were the correct tools for the job.
I decide to tug on the glass just to see the amount of pressure needed to remove the glass, to my surprise the glass popped off, what... the second one did the same thing, I didn't use the heat or the Flat blade Screwdriver.
So now I have two Mirror Housings without glass, and planning the new glass wiring.
Before I start my Mirror Swap I was wondering:
1) Anyone has replaced the Mirror Motors before putting new Mirror Glass in the Housings ?
2) Anyone know of a Blind Spot Mirror that fits the bottom of the '06 Mirrors ?
3) shining a Front Facing Directional Light, any thoughts ? I have seen and read the Light on the bottom of the mirror I need that space for the Blind Spot Mirror, I'm thinking a shallow mount LED, mounted facing the front of the truck and as far out as possible.
Thanks for any input
Sorry to the OP for the High Jack.
