Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out and next time you need parts for your vehicle think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video we're going to show you how to replace an outside rearview mirror on this 2001 Sequoia same as any '01 to '04. We do the driver's side mirror, the passenger side mirror, is a very similar procedure and this is a limited model so the plug is a little bit larger and then a little bit of a different location than the SR5 models. Tools you'll need are flat blade screwdriver both regular and small size, Phillips screwdriver, a door panel clip tool or a putty knife, and a 10mm wrench.

Your battery's here on the driver side, now you want to disconnect your negative battery cable. It should be the one closer to the fender. Loosen it, pull it off the terminal and tuck it down on the side.

Start up here with a flat blade screwdriver, carefully pry at the top and pull this up and out. Then there's this switch panel here. Insert your screwdriver right in the middle of the front and it's a little unnerving, it eventually comes but you have to pry out pretty hard. Your switch panel comes up and out and there's a little tab right here, press that down, disconnect.

Next, there's a little detent here, pull this little plug out and then on your courtesy light here put your screwdriver in at the front and pry out. There's a little metal clip you kind of heard fall down on the door. It will fall off in a second, but then you pull this right off. Then you'll need a smaller flat blade screwdriver for the little trap door in your door handle here just pry that out and you'll see a Phillips screw. Then also here is a little plug pry that off and the Phillips screw right there, use your Phillip screwdriver. Fast forward here as we remove that screw, the one that is in the door handle and then the one underneath the arm rest as well.

Take your regular screwdriver again, put it in right above the lock here and pry up and out on your bezel and then down and out and pull that right out. Now the back edge of the door panel, there's two little pins, push the center of the pins in and then these clips come out. Take a door panel clip tool and insert it to the back here. Slide it up you'll feel a clip. Try and go around the clip then you pull it out. There's my little clip for my courtesy light. Right around the door, if you don't have a door panel clip tool like this then a household putty knife works as well, as long as it has a tempered blade. Once you release the clips you lift the door panel up and off.

Clip or two stayed behind, just use a pair of needle nose pliers and pull those out. Let me just put them right back into your door panel. The mirror is held on here by three 10mm bolts. Your connection is right here. There's a tab if you reach around the inside. Press the tab down and then pull the connector up and out. I'm just going to use the wrench then you loosen up these nuts they pretty much come right off by hand. I'll just speed it up as I take the other 2 nuts off and if your mirror may have a different configuration and if that is the case it's possible that the harness may be further down underneath the water shield.

As you can see my mirror's fine so I'm going to reinstall it. The mirrors from 1A Auto they come in black, usually the backing is a separate piece so you can paint it to match separately or you can just put the black one on there and it's a good functional replacement. Reinstallation it's just a reversal procedure make sure that the, make sure your connection goes through. Just going to speed up as I thread the bolts or the nuts on by hand and then tighten up, you want to tighten them up nice and firm, you don't want to over tighten them though. Make sure that you reconnect your lead.

Put the door panel on, put it up in place and make sure you pull your window harness through and then push this harness through right down here. Look back make sure your pins are going in. Now we're going to start from top to bottom. Make sure this goes down in correctly, that goes in. We'll fast forward here again as I put the screw in underneath the arm rest in the door handle as well as the front one and put that clip on and a little cover panels. On these pins make sure you push them out, so the center is sticking out. Then you push it into place and lock it in by pushing the pin flush. Again, push it out so the pin's sticking out, put it in, push the pin, flush to lock. If you haven't already reconnect and tighten up your negative battery cable.
