Replace heated mirror glass in your car or truck. Whether your mirror lens is heated or not heated you can follow this easy how to video to replace it.
You need to determine if your mirror lens on your car or truck is heated or not. You can check to see if you have a defrost option near your mirror control panel. If there is no defrost option near the panel on the driver side door then you can turn on your defrost inside your car. In my case in my 1999 Toyota 4Runner the front defrost turned the defrost on my mirror lens. If your mirror lens does not heat up then you do not have a heating element in your mirror lens.
Once you determine which style mirror lens you have then you can purchase the correct lens. In both cases you have to remove the glass. Wear gloves and use a putty knife, pick, or flat head screwdriver to remove the broken mirror glass.
Remove the heating element if you have one and remove the backing plate if needed. Disconnect the electrical connector to the heating element and attached the new one. Attach any other hardware as necessary. Attach the backing plate and then the sticky adhesive mirror lens with the heating element.
Push firmly but gently to allow the adhesive to stick to the backing plate. You can turn on the defrost or use a bowl and tape to push the glass firmly on the backing plate. If you allow the bowl to sit over night then you should probably keep the defrost option off. It may drain your battery if you leave the defrost on the whole night. Do not leave the bowl on the mirror lens for more than 10 minutes with the defrost on.
