Your step by step, pause frames and everywere on point! The small details are where its at. Thanks man!

Thank you for the detailed instructions. I had this very thing happen with my passenger side mirror. My brother in law and I took it off and decided there wasn't any way to get in there and look at it let alone fix it. We were simply going to go to take time and spend some money at the junkyard for a replacement. At the last minute I decided to type "fix a tahoe side mirror" into RU-vid, since RU-vid has been a great resource in the past. Lo and behold, there was your video. We followed your instructions and the mirror is fixed / back on the truck. It definitely is no picnic pressing that cap on while having to compress the spring. But we did it with a pair of channel locks and a pair of pliers and a hammer. You saved me money and time. Thanks again!

hey bro, great video. in the process i discovered a shortcut for the tough part. take a 30mm socket, place it over the steel ring, wack it really good with a rubber mallet and it seats right into place.

Great video. I would just like to add that if you drill a couple holes into that cast aluminum piece, you could put a roll pin or a long nail through it to keep that lock washer from ever sliding off again.

Hey man awesome video. I was able to help my dad fix the drivers side mirror on our Yukon. It was wobbly, and I followed the instructions in your video to successfully fix fix the mirror. We thought we had to buy a new one.

Flashback502 - Thank you for showing the process for this. My passenger side mirror did this. I have an idea for getting that clip back on. Use a OS/2 socket so you can go right over it and then put an extension on it and force it down. I have to check out the size of the socket compared to the clip size. Hopefully they are similar enough :)

I had exactly the same issue w/ my 2001 Tahoe. With the help of the video I was able to fix it without breaking anything and it works fine. Thanks for the useful guidance.

Thanks brother..just bought a beautiful white 03 yukon and the driver side mirror was.loose and the dealership just put a peice of cardboard under it to hold it in and I found your video and i finally fixed it!!! Saved me $110 bucks .from buying a whole new side mirror

I used this video to fix my wife's mirror, works great now....thank you

Thanks so much for your video, I live in New Zealand where all Chevy trucks are imported and we are not able to just go and buy used parts at a wrecking yard for most models as they are hard to find here. New parts are available online but shipping costs are very high even if we can find some parts supplier who will even ship to NZ. So your video was a godsend when my mirror failed. Instructions were clear and like most people I was only a bit stuck when pressing the washer back on. I tried a valve spring compressor which was probably a little small to handle the job, I tried zip tying the spring after compressing it with a couple of vice grips but the ties I had werent beefy enough to hold it when I released the vice grips. In the end I used a couple of small G Clamps which worked out with the help of a friend. I was going to put a pin in as someone else suggested to help hold the washer down but opted for using a hot glue gun to liberally glue around the top which seems to be working great.....thanks :-)

Thanks for the lesson, I was thinking we need a new mirror but I bet you just taught us how to fix it. Much appreciated!

Awesome video! Thought I needed a whole new mirror. Saved me $50! Thanks a bunch!

thanks so much, i used c-clamps to compress the spring. saved me money.

Just yesterday my drivers mirror started to wobble somewhat. It certainly was very irritating and this video shows me exactly what I need to do to fix it. Thanks!

The only video that helped me out thank you brother you a real one

Tried fixing my 2002 denali and the assembly was totally diffrent and wasnt able to fix. Now my 2003 silverado was similar to the one on this video and ibwas able to fix it. Out of nowhere this mirror was like this. I always fold the mirror by hand and park my truck in the garage. I went to fold it back open and it was loose. Thanks to this video i was able to fix it. 1 tip, The spring was so hard to push down what i did was hit it down with a flat head screw driver between the teeth on the ring. But make sure the teeth are back down because mine was up.

Just what I was looking for. Saved me a trip to the junkyard. Thanks

Thank you very much for this very detailed video. This just happened to me last week, saved me money and time.

Man thats the best video on mirror repair on youtube.i have an 03 silverado & its doing the same thing.youre video is strait to the point & very clear.i can swap engines & trannys & rear ends but this one stumped me lol.i think i can handle it now.i subscribed.first video ive ever subscribed to.thanks man.

Really good video and helped me fix my broken mirror. Thanks!!

Maaaaaan thank you so much. 👏👏💪You just saved me 150€. Greetings from Austria

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This was an easy fix thanks to you. I can't say thank you enough.

Very helpful video. My Silverado mirror rattles so I’ll follow your instructions to disassemble but may need to fix something else inside. Thanks.

EXACTLY the solution and information that I needed! THANK YOU!

Thanks for the video! The spring and cap on my Silverado are pretty rusty so it was tricky to get them down. Ended up using vice clamps to help drive it down while pushing with the flat part of a hex screwdriver. Whew! Glad to have my mirror secured. =)

Good video and Thanks... that's just what happened with my truck and now it's fixed!

Awesome video Back together in a flash.

Had to repair the passenger side mirror on the wife's Denali. Found out if you tear it down further and remove to wires from the neck it is much easier, all you have to do is use a slightly larger socket that the neck and push everything back together with a bench vise.

thanks a lot your video saved me having to buy a new one!!

Thanks that was exactly what I needed

Most helpful! Thank you very much for posting this video.

Hell yeah I think you just showed me how to fix my issues thanks brotha

Excellent step by step guide, thanks

this is exactly what i needed to see! thanks!

thank you for uploading!! appreciated!

Very helpful video, thanks!

Definitely going to try this on my Tahoe later.. not trying to spend 200$ for a new set

Had to use a 1/2 inch extension holding one side down while I used a hammer to hit the other side voila, it works great.

Excellent explanation; thanks so much!

Gracias por el video creía que tenía que remplasar todo el espejo👍

Very helpful you saved me money.

Subscribed after watching, this helped alot thank you!

Thanks bro! you just saved me some money.

I got as far as taking the hub/housing apart with no problem, but the clip was a problem I bent the tabs as you instructed but I could not get the ring to go over the spring. At the end of your video I did not see how you press that cap/ring over the springs, show me how you did that...

I tried this and I couldnt pop the tabs off behind the glass and ended up shattering the glass. Yay.

Best how to get there and fix it on these yet! THANKS

Hey. Great video. Mine is starting to wobble and hopping to not have to buy a new one. I have power folding mirror. Does this fix apply to these as well? Thanks again.

Thanks! Worked great.

This shit just happened to me 5 minutes ago. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you sir, I'm about to go fox my mirror.

Very helpful but how the heck did you end up compressing that spring to get the collar back on? I'm stumped.

thanks for share this tip. I try to fix my mirror.
