Installing Side mirror info

[Payback45]

Is there a sticky any where on how to install new side mirrors? We recently had a hell of a wind storm and my wifes Legacy L drivewr side mirror was shattered so now its time for new.

Also, where would be a good place to buy new side mirrors? And dont say a auto part store.
I am looking for good deals.

If you want to download the FSM.. check out my sig. Also, here is the PDF it came from:

http://www.designlabx.com/subaru/mirror ... 99L380.pdf (http://www.designlabx.com/subaru/mirror/MSA5TCD99L380.pdf)

Those instructions are for the BD series legacy.. however, i'm sure its VERY similar on your model, if not exactly the same.

When some drunk ass sparta kicked mine off, I went searching on ebay and found a cheap one for like < $30

Of course it wasn't the exact same as mine, I had a white housing. I got a black housing and just swapped the broken internals over.

Those fastening screws that hold the mirror to the door are very difficult to break loose sometimes. Take care to get a proper size screwdriver so you don't start to strip the screw top.

I had to drill them off, even after soaking in PB blaster for 2 hours... make sure the ambient temp is around 65F...
