did this today in about an hour. only because i lost a lot of daylight outside and had to maneuver the street lamps. great tutorial! the dealer wanted to charge me $350 for the mirror plus labor. "hell nah!" i thought to myself. i'm so glad you guys put this on youtube. i ordered the part, and fixed my own driver side mirror for the low low price of $65. it was my first time fixing something on my own car and this was incredibly helpful and efficient. thanks so much!!

[@YoliGSXR]

I did it all by myself. Awesome. Thanks for the video. I propped the door on a stool so I didn't have to unplug everything. You saved me $100

[@Craftydecor]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I actually had to replace my mirror and didn't want to pay someone to do it and my husband... well lets just say manual labor isn't his cup of tea. He would rather pay someone to do it. I am a cheap skate lol. I am 37 and just replaced my mirror by my self thanks to you!! Thank you Thank you Thank you

Very simple and well shot video. Thank you. I only wish i saw this a month ago when my car was totalled so i could get the upgraded mirrors off before they towed it away.

[@lucys.6386]

Between this video and your video on removing the door panel, I was able to replace my 2000 Maxima side mirror. Thank you very much!

[@YoliGSXR]

Thanks. I hope I can do this. Do I NEED to unplug everything from the door or can I leave it hanging?

[@teddyg210]

This save me a ton of money! Thanks for the great videos!

Awesome video, really helped me out on my 2004 Maxima. Thanks a lot!

[@PopePlatinumBeats]

just asking... but with the door panel off... do you have to totally take it off? seems like you have room to work without taking off the lock cable and bottom connectors

[@1AAuto]

@ J Lee You may be able to just tilt the door panel away from the door if you're careful.

[@pgwar22]

I was wondering the same thing. my mirror /motor is fine. just the black part that mounts to the car got snapped off.

[@danielwhitaker9021]

Thanks for the video! I would add a warning that if you don't get the wires on the door handle and lock just right, you'll be in a pickle. I got the panel back on, closed the door, and then it wouldn't open from the inside or the outside. Mechanic tried every trick in the book to get it open but couldn't. So MAKE SURE THE DOOR WILL OPEN BEFORE YOU CLOSE IT!

[@1AAuto]

+Daniel Whitaker You may have to remove the door panel so that you can access the inside of the door to pop it open.

[@danielwhitaker9021]

1A Auto Parts Yep, we eventually were able to get the door open and then were able to take off the door panel and get the wires back in place. Just thought it would be nice to give a heads up to anyone else who might run into this problem. Thanks again for the video. It saved me time and money!

[@treycas33]

Thank you so much!! This is easier than switching the magazine release on my Beretta (j/k), but still easy

[@1AAuto]

Thank you for watching. Glad we could be of help. Please let us know how the repair comes out! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

[@treycas33]

1A Auto Parts I couldn't unsnap the cables, so I rested the panel on some pillows, thanks

[@augustr6456]

old video i know, and i doubt you'll see this. but do you know if there was any changes between 04-05 maximas side mirror? i have an 04 and am getting a part from an 05

[@ryanfitzgerald5504]

Thank you for this! I have an 06' Maxima, the door pull looks a little different than the video shows however, is everything basically the same on the SE model vs. the SL Model? I plan on trying this tonight.

[@edgarruiz8862]

wow thanks for the Video infor .. I'm in the processes of replacing mine . thanks again

[@1AAuto]

+Edgar Ruiz You're welcome! Happy to hear it's helpful for you. Good luck on your repair! 1aauto.com 866-403-3393

[@valcabral537]

Hi- this video is GREAT. Do you know if the process is significantly different for a 2011 Altima? My dealership wants $300+ for the parts alone, nevermind the labor, painting, etc. I can't really afford the $450+ that it would come to right now, and your price is WAY better. I just didn't see a video that included 2011, so I wanted to be sure before buying that I would be able to install it using this technique...thanks! I may also use your live chat on your site so sorry if I duplicate this question.

[@1AAuto]

Thank you for watching Valerie. Unfortunately removing the door panel is going to be different. We currently do not have a video for a 2011 but will keep it in mind for future videos. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

[@markdavis2701]

Any video of how to change out the mirror control switch near the dash on a 2008 Nissan Maxima?

[@1AAuto]

+mark davis We're always cycling through common cars. We'll add this repair to our list! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c

[@manny284]

This is excessive, just had mine replaced at an auto body shop for $45 and they only removed the back cover to the mirror screws without removing the whole door panel. The job was done in about 5 minutes

[@rampage_45]

You are awesome. Thank you.

[@mr.prolific2138]

Thanks for this video it helped me out on my o6 Max

[@1AAuto]

We're glad the video helped you out. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com 866-403-3393

[@bertolinomarco3871]

can you not just replace the black plastic piece (that holds the mirror)., Or do you have to buy the entire assembly?

[@dougvillatoro4428]

did you ever find an answer for this?

[@summerluna26]

Thank you this was very helpful !

[@1AAuto]

+Jazmin Paez Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com

[@the07vlog86]

do I have to remove the entire mirror if my mirror is only broken? or how can I only change it of its only broken? I have a 08 maxima

[@GeOD71]

Do 2006 Altima 3.5SE-R & Maxima 3.5SE have interchangeable side view mirrors? Do you know if they are compatible... What I want are power folding side mirrors and I see that the '05, '06 maxima has that feature. Can it be done? Any advise would be greatly appreciated

[@1AAuto]

+GeOD71 The mirror would not be compatible or interchangeable. They are still two different cars and will have different features in the mirrors.

[@jarfanrene7700]

Thanks saved me a lot

[@lilc713htx6]

Will the 08 mirror fit on a 2011

[@dougvillatoro4428]

Hi i happened to break the bracket the black part of the side view mirror. would it be possible to replace just the bracket instead of the entire mirror ?

[@dougvillatoro4428]

thanks for the info! one more question is it possible to buy the base mirror and just be able to replace the bracket? do the brackets have anything to do with the type of mirror you have

[@dougvillatoro4428]

is it possible to buy the base mirror housing and just replace the black bracket that holds it to the car? or do i need to buy the more expensive housing?

[@mondragonfco]

the part that is broken on my mirror is the black triangle part not the cover, can I replace the cover and put my original one since my car color is silver?

[@1AAuto]

Hey what causes your mirror to open close I’m having a problem with the same model car one side open and closes the left side won’t please help.

[@1AAuto]

+Aysia buie We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com

[@chanelashmon1340]

Is this a powered mirror? Cause I didn't see any wires being connected

[@1AAuto]

+Chanel Ashmon Yes, in 4:05 of the video you can see the wire. Here is a link to the mirrors shown in this video on our website. www.1aauto.com/1A/Mirrors/Nissan/Maxima/1AMRP00468?KZbin&CTA+Comment&LPrl-jBlsiw

[@jiminycracker]

Molto grazie, saved me big $$!!

Thank you for watching! 888-844-3393

[@wildwinebert]

are there any side mirrors that fold?

[@1AAuto]

+Spider acambarock Yes.

[@1AAuto]

If it's the mirror housing that has broke, you would need to replace the mirror assembly. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

[@JeepinReefer406]

It doesn't appear that you actually need to fully remove inner panel from the door. Is this the case?

[@1AAuto]

+Jeff Hebert You will have to remove the door to access the mirror connector. 1aauto.com

[@1AAuto]

It may be a similar process. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

[@ernk75]

need that same color

[@1AAuto]

+ernk75 All of ours ship in black, but you could easily take it to an automotive body shop and have them paint it the proper color for you to match it up. Thanks for checking out our videos!
