So, I was backing up in my driveway last weekend, and a tree jumped in the way of my driver's side mirror [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img], and creamed it. The glass is gone (buried in the snow until April or May), and the outer shell is in several pieces. The plate (behind the glass)with wiring and electronics appears to be intact. It's a 2002 dual arm power version (no heat or lights). I've done a few searches, and found a variety of posts - nothing specific. My questions:
1) Any readily available procudures for removing/replacing the assembly?
2) Are separate components available, or do I need to purchase the entire assembly?
3) Anybody know part nos. and suggestions for where to order FACTORY items from? (I want to stay away from aftermarket - read stories of vibrations, poor fit, etc)
Here ya go. Link at the bottom of the page for installation instructions.
Feel for ya. My buddies garage moved over as he was backing out his brand new Dmax. $1000.00 for one of those power jobbys

You can replace the glass with this factory heated glass. Old P/N is listed first. This is from www.1stfordparts.com You only need to run 2 wires to each mirror for the heat to work. You can wire it up to be on anytime the engine is running (factory way) or you can add a switch.
YC3Z 17K707 BB is now 4C7Z 17K707 BA and their price is $40.96 (left side)
YC3Z 17K707 BA is now 4C7Z 17K707 AA and their price is $41.34 (right side)
I don't know why one side costs more than the other!?!?
I know that I've read that the outer shell can be ordered as well, and I'm pretty sure you can even get it already painted if you wanted to go that route.

Thanks Roger - Even though I live in snow country, I have never really experienced the need for heated mirrors - I just brush off the snow and/or scrape off the ice, and it's done.I need to replace the whole assembly anyway, and want to get it done as inexpensively as possible.

does anyone know if you can buy the heated replacement glass for the smaller non-TT mirrors (i guess they're called sport mirrors)? i would like to put "heat" in my mirrors.

I've never seen anyone post info for the "small" mirrors. Do they appear to be the same mirror as another Ford product uses? Maybe they are the same size as a F150 or Expedition, for example???

Follow Up post. Ordered the mirror from parts.com - part No. 3C3Z-17683DAA (driver's side telescopic two-arm, power, no heat, no lights). $140 with shipping - expensive, but cheaper than I could find anywhere else...
CoolCanuck - thanks for the link to eurekaboys instructions - they were great! - completed in a lunch hour without a hitch
