How to Replace the Side View Mirror on a 1995 Chevy Caprice Classic
The side view mirror on a 1995 Chevy Caprice Classic mounts through the sheet metal on the outside of the door and is secured to the inside of the door with three bolts hidden behind a plastic access panel. Given the way the mirror attaches to the door, it requires every few tools to replace one and just a little time since you do not have to disassemble the door to remove the mirror.
