How to Repair a Side View Mirror on a Pontiac G6
The Pontiac G6 is a standard midsized four-door sedan that uses standard plastic enclosures to mount the side view mirrors onto the door frames. This is the same process that GM has used since transitioning from metal mirrors that bolt onto the side of the door. Since the mirror inside of the enclosure attaches with a few metal clips, removing the side view mirror from the enclosure is a relatively simple process to complete.
Instructions
- 1
Push one side of the mirror into the enclosure to push the other end of the mirror out. If you are repairing the driver mirror, push the right side of the mirror into the enclosure. If you are repairing the passenger mirror, push the left side of the mirror into the enclosure.
2Slide your hand behind the mirrors edge and pull out on the mirror to force the metal clips to pop off the plastic ball on which the mirror pivots.
3Place the new mirror inside of the enclosure and press the tabs around the plastic pivot ball by pushing on the center of the mirror with the ball of your fist.
