Do I need to remove the entire mirror assembly to swap in this glass?

No. This is a glass-only replacement that installs directly into your existing mirror housing. You'll access it from behind or the side of the mirror depending on your model—no need to pull the whole assembly off the door.

Is this adhesive-mounted or does it use clips?

Installation method not specified in the product data. Test the fit in your housing first—some mirror housings use factory clips, others use a backing plate. Have both adhesive and mechanical fasteners on hand before starting.

What if the glass arrives damaged or doesn't fit my mirror housing?

Start with a test fit in dry condition before committing to any adhesive. If fitment is off, contact support with photos showing your mirror housing interior. Damage claims must be reported within 48 hours of delivery.
