well if ya wanna do it... thats the way to get it done. Tony from APR said he doesn't recommend it and hasn't heard of any issues with them just being stuck on. If I wanted your mirrors I'd just take the whole assembly.

Anyone know, i tried search and only come up with led replacements which already shows it taken apart
You can take it off and remove the lens if you want. I don't know why you would want to and why it bothers you to have that space. As long as you line it up correctly it won't be noticeable that anything is behind it.

DUDE!!! WOW! I so needed this. Hehe, not for any other reasons but to change my light with a bright LED.

I had a feeling I will be getting more of these. I am working things out I just need to get to the end of the week and I will be sending everyone replacements for those that broke. Please PM me with your name a picture of the broken mirrors... USPS is gonna have a lot of bad luck.

Anyone with broken mirrors... I have ordered my supplies which should be here in the next week or so. I have three sets on hand at the moment, 2 of which are claimed as replacements. I apologize if any more break and I will be forced to order the second batch without it full to get the rest.

I went by USPS and found out that the flat rate PRIORITY doesn't have insurance but the EXPRESS did... oh the details how they kill me. Well I will get these to everyone even if it costs me more money.

Cruz which one is broken? If someone has a broken drivers side that would save me about 50 bucks.
