They are not easy to remove. I don't have heated mirrors, so not sure how they would affect those.

I have heated side mirrors also and my last vehicle had them as well. The mirrors have never come off due to the heated element from the mirror. They are relatively easy to remove. I have used a Razor Scraper on other mirrors to remove them. After they are off you may need a few extra scrapes to remove all the sticky padding, but it is not much problem at all.

Yes they have heat and power adjusting as well, although the company is working with me I ordered these mirrors a month ago and still haven't got the order straight. They first sent me 2 passenger side mirrors, so after emailing them they sent me a drivers side which I received last week to find out the glass in it was shattered, so now I'm still waiting on a drivers side praying it's a fully function able mirror. But to answer your question they are heated and power adjustable not manual

I have not had any issues on this. Only one time the adhesive didn't stick but it was the dead of winter and bitter cold out. That was for one side as well. I have had many car washes as well and I had no issues. Make sure you clean the mirror with alcohol as instructed.

Most likely some damage will occur. The manufacturer states that on the instructions. Once it's on....it's pretty much permanent. Consulting a professional detailer on removal would be your best bet.

We have not removed it and my husband said he does not plan on removing it. I also left a comment about it fogging up, but my husband said that the instructions say to hold it under the warm shower and it will defog, that if fogs up because the mirror gets cold. It is nice because you can hold it in your hand. I would recommend it.

I haven,t had them for years. But, so far I haven,t had any problems with it coming off. Just make sure you heat set it properly.

mirror removes too easily...unscrews during normal use so I have to remember to spin it a couple of times a day to keep it from scaring me by falling off...good luck with your project!

hi - if you use the double sided tape it comes with... then it shouldn't be hard to take off. i used that at first but didn't like it as i wanted them in all the time. i got the pink lashes and my car is white. the tape is black so i bought silicon to glue them in. the tape doesn't hold them in as good. all i did to take off the tape was tear them off really slow. if u put them on you def can't go thru a car wash with them. you will need to hand wash your car. hope this helps. barbi :)

The best way to remove these is using a "heat gun". If you don't have one goto Lowe's or a local hardware store and buy one with two heat settings 750W and 1500W. First start by heating the side vents on the 750W heat setting (holding the heat about 2 inches from the vents) for about 3 to 5 minutes. If the low heating does work move to the higher heat setting and use less time. At this point you should be able to peel the vents off by hand. Once off use acetone(finger polish remover) to clean the remaining "glue" from the car. This should work. Any other question just ask. The best way to remove these is using a "heat gun".

If you are only interested in replacing the mirror itself the size and dimensions work perfectly...very easy to install. I do have heated side mirrors on my VW Passat and didn't want to spend the money for full replacement - only wanted to be able to see. I haven't tried using the heater since I replaced the mirror because I am concerned it will dry out the adhesive. I don't mind doing a bit of scraping.

Hi unfortunatly mine are not heated.but coming from a trade background the heater element is always part of the actual mirror so I would say no in this case.hope this helps...

Is the adhesive removable once installed? What if you want to dismount the mirror at some point ?

It is very simple to remove and put back on. This should not be a concern for you.

Mine had completely broken off but its not that hard to take off all u need is a flat head screw driver to pop it off but u need to move the mirror around up or dwn n pop off from the other side. It will only take about 10 min to do everything

The vehicle I installed then on (96 GMC k2500 suburban) didn't have factory heated side mirrors so the replacements I purchased only are power. There are versions of this type mirror that has power/heat and a marker light.

The product description will usually state that it's heated. If you have it in your possession, it will usually have extra connectors or wires for hooking up the heating element on the mirror itself. The mirror will work regardless, you'll have to live without defogging the mirror. The one I received wasn't heated, but I was able to retrofit the old unbroken element and wiring into the new one.
