Step-by-Step Installation:
- Prepare the Vehicle: Park the vehicle on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and turn off the ignition. Disconnect the negative terminal of the vehicle's battery.
- Remove Door Panel: Carefully remove the interior door panel on the passenger side. This usually involves removing screws hidden under trim pieces, door handles, or window switch panels, then prying the panel off with trim removal tools.
- Disconnect Old Mirror: Locate the wiring harness connected to the existing mirror. Disconnect the electrical connector.
- Remove Mounting Bolts: Unscrew the mounting bolts or nuts that secure the mirror to the door frame. There are typically three bolts accessible from inside the door.
- Remove Old Mirror: Carefully remove the old mirror assembly from the vehicle.
- Install New Mirror: Position the new ZAPOSTS mirror assembly onto the door frame. Ensure the mounting studs align with the holes.
- Secure New Mirror: Hand-tighten the mounting nuts onto the studs from inside the door, then use a socket wrench to tighten them securely. Do not overtighten.
- Connect Wiring: Connect the new mirror's electrical harness to the vehicle's wiring connector. Ensure it clicks into place.
- Test Functionality: Before reassembling the door panel, reconnect the vehicle's battery. Turn on the ignition and test the power mirror adjustment and heating functions.
- Reassemble Door Panel: Once functionality is confirmed, reattach the interior door panel by reversing the removal steps. Ensure all clips and screws are properly secured.

Operation
Power Mirror Adjustment:
The mirror glass can be adjusted using the vehicle's interior mirror control switch. Typically, this switch is located on the driver's side door panel. Select the right mirror (R or Passenger side) and use the directional pad to move the mirror glass to your desired viewing angle.
Heated Mirror Function:
This mirror features an integrated heating element. The heated function is usually activated automatically with the rear defroster or a dedicated mirror heat button, depending on your vehicle's specific features. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for details on activating the heated mirror function.
Manual Folding:
The mirror housing can be manually folded inward towards the vehicle body. This is useful for parking in tight spaces, navigating narrow passages, or protecting the mirror from damage when parked. To fold, gently but firmly push the mirror housing towards the vehicle. To return it to the driving position, pull it back until it clicks into place.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Clean the mirror glass with standard automotive glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Clean the mirror housing with mild automotive soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the mirror for any signs of damage, loose components, or wear. Ensure the mirror glass is securely in place and the housing is firmly attached to the vehicle.
- Wiring: Check the wiring connection periodically for corrosion or damage, especially if you experience intermittent functionality.
