I'm thinking since you're talking two mirrors you are talking about the outside mirrors? If so can you explain the exact procedure.....paleeeeezeee :D

only because I have a left outside mirror that has a really nice housing assembly but the mirror has a really nasty scratch......and of course I have a really nice mirror in a really nasty housing.....you can pretty much figure out where this is going :D :D
