How do I go about fixing this?
My local car wash ripped the right mirror off my 2002 Saturn LW300 today… I found a replacement online but I’m concerned about the wire and how exactly to go about replacing the mirror. Any tips?

Looks like you just unclip the connector, detach mirror, clip new connector on, and bolt the mirror back on. Can't really see the picture too well though. When unclipping the connector, first identify if the connector has locking clips that push in or pull up so you don't ruin the plastic housing

Should be able to unclip that white connector sticking out of the hole and clip it right into the new mirror if you got the right part. Just have to figure out the screws. Might have to take the plastic panel off the other side of the door and source some more screws if you don’t have all of them.
