Can the Cover be removed to be replaced with the Original Painted Cover? Can the Mirror be removed to be replaced with an asymmetrical Mirror?

Yes, remove the 2 screws on back press outer black clip out. Original cover fits pretty close to exact.

When we purchased ours a few months ago, there was not a matching mirror that we could find. We ended up purchasing one separately.

The mirror can be moved or you can choose not to install it. It is held in place by double sided tape.

No, you have to remove the old mirror first. Then you will see where it goes.

No but if you are having problems fitting it in you can. I took mine off and it just exposes the original cover.

The mirror comes unattached, so theoretically you could use the mirror you already have. :)

The new cover has two pins that it sits on then screws in at the top with a pin. So if you current one has a hinge type door then no it will not be a direct swap. Also it has a exhaust vent directly out the door and a vapor drain hose out the front. So without major modification I think you are out of luck. Or getting it painted to match but that would be a major expense.

No. At least mine cannot be removed. I bought another cover and put it on top of it and that's the one i take out and wash. Hope this helps

It looks like interchangeable to me since they are in the same size. But I am not sure you can do that. I thought about that too, but did not figure out how to take the mirror off.

The mirror is held in place with Silicone with a piece of thin wood also glued in with Silicone. I'm sure it can be done, but the finished front might get damaged in the process. You might be able to frost the existing mirror with a kit to frost glass, but practice on something else first. Good luck.

My guess is you would have to take it to an auto body shop and have them paint it. I would check with an auto body shop but my guess is they will recommend you get the dull black mirror versus the shiny black mirror.

That feature is a part of your vehicle not the mirror.So if your old mirror did it, so will the new one. All of the features your old mirror had this one will have it too.

The mirror does come with the detachable cover. Its black so you can remove and paint it the color of your choice.

When I replaced the driver side, I did have to open the door panel. I didn't consider it to be easy, but it isn't impossible with basic tools and some diligence. I also have the passenger side mirror, which I haven't replaced yet. I assume it will be a similar job.One humorous note, unless you are a super perfectionist and then I suppose it will annoy you, was the control wires were incorrectly positioned in the connector. So, none of the power control directions match the mirror response. It isn't the kind of thing that I care too much about.

No, not exactly. It was definitely designed and built to be a replacement mirror that is color coated by the collision shop or whomever. You could buy it.. try it on.. decide if it looks good to you.. if so, job done... if not, you can remove it and paint it with a spray can of matched color coat. That was my plan. But I liked the mirror as is, now I have an unused can of Grey Dupli-Coat.

It look's easy, there are two screw's, one on each side of mirror, remove them & separate sides, replace bulb. I hope you find this helpful.

It would be best if the mirror plastic was intact. Depending on how much was broken, this item could possibly be made to work, but I would repair the mirror before I installed this product. It's really just an accent accessory.
