I tried to take off my side-mirrors today to re-paint them gloss-black.......i can get the two small bolts off no problem

Anyone know how to unplug the electrical connection that is in the middle of the dam mirror

Thanks,
Patrick

I don't think it unplugs from the mirror, but it will unplug from the car. They are designed the breakway I believe, so if you gently tug on the wires it should come loose.

You will need to take the door panel off to plug them back in, so your choice if you want to do it now or later.

On my convertible you have to pull the door panel to access the plug which is inside the door.

Yeah, just remove the panel and you should see the connector and how to disconnect it.
