Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing or maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20-plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts installed correctly. That's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace a side view mirror on this 2004 Dodge Ram, same for most '02 to '08. This is in case your mirror got into a little altercation with maybe a garage pole or a garage door or a baseball or something like that. Tools you'll need are a T40 torx driver, a Phillips screwdriver, a flat-blade screwdriver, and a 10-mm wrench or a socket and ratchet.
To remove your front door panel, you're going to start by removing a T40 torx screw and hold your handle on, right there. Okay, and then, you're going to remove four Phillips screws, one there, one up here, and then two down in the lower part of your door panel. This is a my T40 torx driver.
Okay, I'm going to speed it up here, take that t30 screw out and then your handle comes off, and then, I'm going to start with the Phillips screwdriver, take those two off, and then slyly take my jacket so you can see my 1A Auto sweatshirt, and remove the two lower Phillips screws.
Now use a regular screwdriver. Carefully pry up on your switch plate here. Okay, then pull it up and both these connectors, they have a little button right here. Press the button and work the connector and release the switch. Same thing here. This button right there. Okay, now you just lift the door panel up over the lock here and off.
To remove your mirror, or if your mirror's broken, what's remaining of your mirror, here is your harness lead. There's just a little button right on top. Push that down, unplug it. A 10-mm wrench, I happen to use just because these ones are a little bit long. Then, once you get them loose, they come right off by hand.
Okay, so we'll just fast forward through removing those three 10-mm nuts. The mirror has a couple of tabs. Just kind of pull them down. Okay, and here's just a quick close up. Use your screwdriver, pressing on each tab on each side and pull out the mirror at the same time. Push those tabs through and bring the mirror up and down.
Okay, so here we have our new replacement; I pulled one out, all comes right out of the box. It's shipped folded. Fold it back into place, and you can see, it's basically all the same as the original. It's going to mount the same. Same connector and everything. Looking outside, put it underneath my shield a little bit. Pop one in and then the bottom ones. Using my original fasteners. Okay, and we'll just fast forward through putting those three 10-mm nuts on and then tightening them up. You want to tighten them up, uh nice and firm but not too tight. You don't have to go crazy but good and firm. Poke it back in.
Okay, you can see everything works correctly. Take this off and put your door panel back on. Use this piece of insulation that fell off when we took our door panel off. Press that back on, and before you put the door panel back on, you want to take this lock bezel and push the clips in and pop it off. It just has a little teeth there. Okay, it just has a little teeth there that holds it in. So, you just kind of push them with your finger over.
Put it back on, what you want to do is, there's teeth at the bottom, kind of rest it like that and bring it up. Pull your harnesses up out of the way. Okay, lock your door, press your door lock down. Take that up and over and pull it back up. You might have to pull it up just a little bit and then slide it down. Then, okay put the four Phillips screws back in.
Okay, and we'll fast forward through just putting those four Phillips screws in and tightening them up. Okay, our switch. Put the smaller capture in and the larger capture and feed the wires down in. Push it down in. Our door handle. Just got to put my extension and my bit in. Put into place, and you should be able to just pretty much start turning. It pretty much finds its own way. For your lock, snap right down, and you're all set.

Okay friends, just a quick heads up, you don't necessarily have to fully remove your door panel here to do the mirror but I'm going to do it just because, in all actuality, it's safer for all the plastic because as you start trying to pull this up and move it a little bit you might potentially crack or break something. Looking at your door panel you're going to see your inner door handle. You want to go ahead and remove that 10-millimeter headed bolt that's in there. Let's get the handle out of the way. Next, let's move along to getting this off right here. Let's use our plastic trim tool and remove this master switch right here. There we are. Go ahead and pull on this tab, set this aside. Now, we need to remove our four Phillips-head mounting screws. You'll have one up here, one in the center where your handle was, and then two along the bottom. Grab your panel like this and carefully lift up. There we go.
Okay, so now we have a nice clear view of our mirror mounting areas. You have three mounting nuts, and of course you have the wiring going to it. If you put your hand like this, you could squeeze with your thumb right along the wiring and draw it right off. There's a little squeeze tab. Moving along, let's remove our three mounting nuts here. Leave that one on just a couple threads for now. Reach through and hold your mirror, and move that last mounting nut. Now what you want to pay attention to is right up along where the wiring went in, you can see there's two little clippie-doo's, you want to just kind of push in on those tabs or squeeze them away from the door. There it is friends.
Let's go ahead and install our mirror. If you have the little window flare here just go ahead and put it underneath there, line up your studs, watch your paint. There we are. Now let's snug 'em up. I'm just going to go till it's bottomed out, give it a teeny bit more. Do the same to all. Let's hook up our electrical connector here, give it a nice click, give it a nice tug, that feels perfect. All right, so now let's go ahead and connect this back in. We'll put the key in the on position, and let's test that mirror. Perfect.
Now it's going to be time to get our door panel back on, but before we can do that let's get this little cover out of here. This is where that door lock is going to be, this is going to make it so much easier for us in the long run. Now, let's put this up to the door, grab our wiring, make sure it comes through. Come up here, we want to come high, that way there, all those hooks can fit into their corresponding holes. I'm pushing at the same time as I'm letting this come down. Okay, I'm just going to feel along the whole way and make sure I'm sitting completely up against the door. Let's grab this right here. I'm gonna go ahead and lift up on that door lock, pop this on in there. All right, move along to our window switch here, lock this in. Okay, make sure it's locked in, perfect. Now let's move along down here to putting in our handle. So now we're going to get our handle on here, I'm just going to get my tool ready so it's already on the handle, put it in so it lines up with its spot, make sure that's snug. Perfect. Now it's going to be time to put in our mounting screws. Let's go ahead up here. I'm going to use the two larger ones first, one down here. Awesome.
