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

You'll need to disassemble the mirror housing to access the glass. The lens itself mounts at factory tabs, but removal process depends on your specific assembly — refer to your service manual or mirror assembly documentation for step-by-step removal.

Will this fit both driver and passenger side tow mirrors?

This is a single lens. Verify which side you need before ordering — driver and passenger mirrors have different curvature. Check your mirror assembly or contact us with a photo if you're unsure which side requires replacement.

Can I install this myself with basic hand tools?

Mirror glass swaps are typically a DIY job once you remove the housing. You'll need a trim panel removal tool or flathead to separate the lens from its mounting tabs. Take photos during disassembly so you remember how it goes back together.
