How to Install Side Mirrors on 2009 2013 Toyota Corolla in 15 minutes

[@jklivinlife]

Mirror for 2009-2013 Toyota Corolla - amzn.to/45LM95x

[@jklivinlife]

This was actually super easy to do.

[@gaffgarion92]

Tried this today, got the new side mirror installed. I was annoyed I was going to have to pull the whole door panel off as I've had to do that to a Hyundai Genesis sedan I used to own for both a window regulator AND the side mirror. Thanks for the helpful tip.

[@jklivinlife]

Glad it helped you out. Thanks for watching

[@PaddyJoeCooking]

This is brilliant John!!! There appears to be no limits to your talents!!!! I drive a 2002 Corolla by the way and I love it!!!

[@jklivinlife]

Haha, thanks PaddyJoe. My 2012 has like 185k miles. I like it. Would love something a little newer but cost prohibits.

[@karenmc6431]

Thank you so much! Your tutorial was easy to follow, understand, and execute! I did my side mirror in about 10 minutes. Awesome tutorial!!! (I have a 2013 Corolla)

[@jklivinlife]

Thanks for watching. Glad it helped.

[@rudraframes]

Appreciate this video, my local Toyota dealer was asking for $800 AUD for mirror + assembly.

[@jklivinlife]

Yikes! That is why I shared. DIY in about 20 mins and save a ton. Save the rest or spend on something fun! Thanks for watching.

[@nlowe59]

Hey dude thank you for doing this video, it was super helpful. Hurricane dropped a tree branch on my mirror and broke it, all fixed now. Thank you!

[@jklivinlife]

So glad it helped you out. Thanks for watching.

[@SirleftyWright]

Really appreciated this video. I've an Aygo, i watched your video and gave me a great place to start and what to expect. Very similar except the wiring. Thanks again. 👍

[@jklivinlife]

No worries. Glad it helped out. Thanks for watching!

Glad this worked out for you. Saved some $$ too. Thanks for watching

Any time. Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching

WELL DONE JOHN YOU SAVED ME A LOT OF WORK THANK YOU REGARDS ED

[@jklivinlife]

Glad this video made it easier. Thanks for watching!

[@stoopkidrva]

U tha man bro. Easiest mirror replacement ever

[@jklivinlife]

Glad it worked out for you. Sure beats taking the whole door apart. Thanks for watching.

[@rik.2293]

John you ever figure out how to disassemble the back cover of the mirror?

[@jklivinlife]

I have not even tried yet. They supposed to come apart pretty easy though. If I take the time I will do a video

[@njlife6962]

Hey John, thanks for sharing this video! I have two questions. It seems the side mirror just snapped off the hinge. Is there any way we can fix the hinge mechanism without replacing the whole mirror assembly? Were you able to change the back cover of the mirror to match color? I was very stupid backing my corolla into a garbage this morning, and the passenger side mirror snapped off... 😭

[@jklivinlife]

Yikes. I am not sure about the hinge. I never even tried to change out the color on the back. I just left the black on their and decided not to mess with it. Good luck with yours. It's pretty easy and both mirrors only cost like $50 so you should be able to save some cash getting only 1.

[@The1stJawa]

Excellent! Even if you add pulling the car in and out of the garage I don’t think it took 10 minutes!

[@jklivinlife]

So true. Thanks for watching and commenting. Glad the video helped.

[@ulisesvarela2957]

omg you just relief so much stress from me thank you so much pal!!!

[@jklivinlife]

So happy this worked out for you and saved you some stress. Thanks for watching!

[@R5308]

Quick note, if you remove the one screw at the door handle it would give you a lot more room behind the door panel. This makes it easier to get both hands to reconnect the mirror wire... or fish out dropped screws :)

[@jklivinlife]

Thanks for watching.

[@CharlesSevier]

I used the quick tip of taking the screw out behind the door handle and it gave me more room. I also had my daughter watch your video (since she’s the one who hit a mailbox knocking the mirror off) and we were able to do this in 10-15 minutes. Thank you both!

Love yt university

[@sandracohen8481]

Do you need the tape, is it for weatherproofing

[@jklivinlife]

usually, yes. you do not want water down inside the door.

[@robertarnold6672]

My car got side swiped & my side view mirror was destroyed. Checked out your video, followed your directions & success! It was certainly easy. It took me 10 minutes total & I made the repair in a parking lot while my wife was seeing the eye doctor. Thanks for making this video. Now I can see! My mirror only costs $28 including shipping & I saved money by doing it myself.

[@jklivinlife]

So glad to hear this helped you out. A mechanic prob would have charged $100 to do the same thing. Knowledge is power. Thanks for watching!

[@tobeetwo]

If it wasn't was for your video I would have had to have a mechanic do this for over $150.00 + mirror. We bought an OEM Toyota mirror online for half of what Toyota charged so check online first. As you say, you don't need to remove the door panel which makes this so much easier. The only tricky part is getting your hand down far enough to remove the cable from the clip and then get the new cable back into the clip. Not that hard. We reused the mirror back from the old mirror to the new mirror. You should watch some videos on removing a mirror back. You don't want to break the tabs getting it off. Mine popped off with not to much effort with a small flat head screw driver wrapping the end with a thin piece of electrical tape and a trim removal tool (found a set online for $7.00). Once I had the back off I put a bit of petroleum jelly on the tabs in case it has to come off again. The old mirror back snapped right on to the back of the new mirror, no problem. Thanks John for this great video!!!!!

[@jklivinlife]

Glad this worked out well for you. Thanks for watching the video and taking the time to comment. So awesome that you saved some $$ as well.

[@sandracohen8481]

The mirror and face are intact it's just the back part that came off do I need to replace the whole thing

[@jklivinlife]

depends on your mirror

[@sandracohen8481]

Good news, I was able to orderThe cover by itself

[@irshadhasanansari6942]

Hi, Can I use the same mirror to my 2010 corolla Blue US made? Please support with reply. Many Thanks

[@jklivinlife]

Sorry I do not know which parts are interchangeable. You may have to check online or at an auto parts store. Thanks for watching

[@mohamedbenallal7465]

Thank you very much you made it easier than others.

[@jklivinlife]

No problem. Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!

[@mohamedbenallal7465]

@@jklivinlife Due to an accident I lost just a mirror and the back which is colored grey metallic as my car. Do you have an idea where I can find theses two parts not expensive? My Mecanicien told me 100$ just to paint the back parts!!!! My system is with motor and heat. And if its easy to place the front and the mirror it will be easy and better to change all the system and less expensive I think. Isn't it?

[@jklivinlife]

@@mohamedbenallal7465 I got mine at carparts.com Both mirrors cost me about $60 and they were all black. I got both since my car is blue. Now I have 2 black mirrors that match. Good Luck!

How do you pop the door cover out?

[@jklivinlife]

You have to roll the window down and get your fingers down in the slot and just gently kinda pull up. It pops right off. Good Luck!

The plastic is in the way of showing me what plastic tab I need to push in on

[@jklivinlife]

I hope you got your mirror installed.. Sorry I can't see what you are seeing. You will have to look closely and may need a flashlight to see where things come apart and go back together. Good Luck!
