Side Mirror Glass Replacement, 2011 GMC Acadia. How I fixed my driver side mirror glass.

I replace the mirror glass on my 2011 GMC Acadia. My driver side mirror glass was broken and it needed to be replace. The GM Dealership wanted $750 to fix it. I bought the glass from the Dealership for $200 and fixed it myself. It took about 20 minutes including the filming.

Good to see you. Thank goodness for KZbin. I look up so many things on here before starting anything I haven't done before. Stay safe my friend.

Loved the little trick of taking out the bottom 2 clips first to get it to pop off! Thanks

[@jster1963]

Thank you very much!

Just paid 30 on Amazon fits perfect

Excellent! I wish I could have gotten that deal. And thank you…..

Do you happen to have the part number you wouldn't mind sharing? I've been trying to find the same mirror for a couple months now. After many amazon returns for the wrong mirror I'm thinking ill never find the correct one. Even the dealership I called was confused on which one was the correct one. All thanks to using the gift of a free carwash from the dealership we bought it from.

[@jster1963]

The dreaded car wash! I'm sorry I don't have the part number. I watched my video again and the numbers I see on the mirror is OP42805 and P9452485U. I don't know if either one is the part number, but that's the best I can do. I think I gave my VIN to the dealership and they gave me the part number, and I just ordered it from them. I can't remember if they used the VIN or I just told them what the features that were on the mirror. Good luck.....

Great seeing you Jester how is retirement treating you

[@jster1963]

Retirement is the best job I’ve ever had! I’m just in constant “fix” mode right now. I hope to get into “fun” and “hobby” mode soon. And thank you very much.....

What does the white clip do? Upper ones are for heat aren't they?

[@jster1963]

The mirror is heated and is auto dimming. I don't know what does what, but those are the 2 functions.....

[@jhargrove1108]

@@jster1963 Well, the mirror on there is an aftermarket, so not sure exactly what I should have. Ordered one from Amazon for $37. It looks close, but only has the upper clips, which I assume are for heating.

[@jster1963]

@@jhargrove1108 My mirror was factory and the one I bought was factory. I just didn’t want to take a chance on an aftermarket part that may or may not work. I didn’t want to do it twice…..

Thanks

You're welcome!.....

[@McFingal]

I thought you retired, you should be pumping out the vajayo's. Good work BTW

[@jster1963]

LOL! I did too. But I have been fixing SO many things. As quick as I can fix things, other things break! I’ve been doing a lot of filming, but not as much editing. I hope to get caught up soon. And thank you very much.....
