Default Drivers Side Mirror Replacement?

Hey LS guys!

I'm new to the LS forums, but I recently acquired a 1994 LS400, but I have a question.

The drivers side mirror is torn up and needs to be replaced, I have a new mirror already, but I cannot seem to find a tutorial on how to replace it.

Does anyone have one out there? I've checked a few other sites, including lexls.com, and just cannot locate one.

You could do that or use a right angle screwdriver and unscrew the 2 screws from under the mirror body itself, leaving just the base. Once loose you can disconnect from there and replace with the same method on the new mirror. Beautiful thing is you don't have to worry about that PITA weather stripping becoming dislodged.
