PORNSTARRACING Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Need some help guys! inside my mirror there is a chunky gold spring with a cap on top, if checked the mirror over so many times im sure the only way to seperate the main mirror from the base is to remove the cap on the spring, has anyone ever stripped a supra mirror down? need to seperate the base that bolts to the door from the mirror shell, hope that makes sence, just ragged my brains out thinking about it thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baldy Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 you can do it by cutting the cap off you then need to drillthe post inside the spring,refit by compressing the spring and washer and roll pin or split pin in place of the original cap ive done it as an experiment for painting purposes and needed to make a tool to compress the spring its not easy though to get back together hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
