Easy install, maybe 20 minutes. Tilt mirrors upwards, use a non-marking prying tool to slowly unclip the mirror off the internal housing. Careful not to put too much upward pressure or the glass can break. I wouldn't do this in colder temperatures either. After the mirror assembly is off, you can see (3) press clips holding the OEM mirror cap on. Simply work your way around by compressing the clips while pulling the caps off. Technically you could just pull the cap off but you run the risk of breaking the clips.

MPerformance mirror caps do you clip in, they are mounted with screws. Possibly to deter people from stealing them? Simple washer and screw. Reverse install.

Next up: Oil Service
