FYI You made this 5 years ago, I wanted to let you know that you are still helping people. Thank you for walking through each step, reasoning & tips. P.S. I did the same this to my mirror 🫢
This video saved me $70 at the body shop. Love DIY videos. Watched the video twice. Very informative and easy to follow. The tool info below was useful. Took me 10 minutes to do. Thank you so much!!
Just replaced my mirror in under 10 minutes. Thanks for the video man, the size of the wrench and socket really helped lessen my time trying to figure it out!
High Tech Dad , thanks so much for this video! I lost my side mirror when a big truck squeezed me over into a garbage can. I was so disappointed, I knew it would cost a ton and this is not anything I would normally expect I could do myself. Your video was great!!! SO helpful showing it was completely doable. Just like you said only took about 10 minutes. We bought the mirror on Amazon (mine is a 2013 Coupe SE) and your instructions worked PERFECTLY! We put two magnets on the end of our little wrench and it magnetized the whole wrench and with that and a little finesse, we were able to get that nut off without losing it in the door. THANKS SO MUCH!!!! GREAT Help! GREAT!
Thank you so much for this video! My mirror was broken by a parking attendant. They bought the part but I refused to let them replace it. So I found your video and replaced it myself! You made it very easy! Thank you!
Excellent! Saved me +$400.00. Took me less than 15 minutes but I did watch the video three times. I used masking tape below the bolts so they wouldn't fall into the door. Thank you!!
Just replaced my passenger side mirror on my 2015 Hyundai Veloster. Sourced the mirror from a wreckers as new was ridiculously priced. Followed these directions and it was almost exactly the same, plus I don’t think it took even ten minutes. Definitely have a 10mm socket on hand, and a thin flat head screwdriver with a towel is also recommended as mentioned by High Tech Dad. The Veloster actually has a wedge of foam inside the frame to stop things falling further into the panel which was pleasing, but it didn’t have that extra node on the outside under the seal to hold it in place so I was a little nervy there and held in place with my other hand until I at least got the electrical connector in place and started the screws. Looks as good as new and I’m over the moon 😊. Thank you so much for the video, this was exactly what I needed!
Thanks for the Video, my daughter broke the passenger side mirror off, on her 2016 Hyundai Elantra. So I picked up a black one from eBay. For under $100 and replaced it in less than 10 minutes. Including finding my 10mm wrench and socket. Easy peasy. Yes they don't match. But probably no one will notice. Thanks again!
Thanks for the tutorial! I have a 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT, and there’s a speaker in that interior door panel, but the concept was basically the same. Replaced it smoothly with no problems. Thanks again!
Thank you for posting! Got my part from Ebay Salvage to match the color of my car, watched this video and was done in 15 minutes (and I'm not handy at all!)
@@Hightechdad Yeah I'm okay and so was the woman who was driving. I'm just glad that there was no body damage on my end. Her driver door was dented though because my car impacted hers on the side as she was trying to pass me while I was getting ready to go around the car in front of me
Very easy replacement. I used a small extendable magnet tool to help ensure I didn't drop the lower left nut. I replaced the right side mirror very easily. Thanks for this very useful video. I just need to figure out how to paint the panel on the front-facing side to match the other mirror and the rest of my car. Any tips on that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. This worked for my 2014 Elantra coupe. None of the nuts were shielded, but the aftermarket mirror had the electrical connection flipped 180 from the OEM mirror.
Any idea of how to remove the outer plastic cover on the side mirror... I figured it would be easier to just switch out the cover on the replacement with the original.
HighTechDad what If my assembly is great but my mirror and the frame around it is off with the wires exposed? Is there a part for that or do I need the entire assembly like you demonstrated?
Great and informative video. However, I would feel bad if I didn't mention that the wrench you are using is a "socket" wrench or a ratchet; not a "sprocket" wrench. It was funny to hear, as you said it so many times it got stuck in my head a bit. Thanks again for the video, though. Very good job!
Did this replacement on my i30 , must have been a patented part as I found the mirror adjustment was not as far as the genuine part . Good how to guide
strawberrysteph did you end up changing it? I want to upgrade my side mirror with one that have a turn signal. I just don’t know if it will be compatible.
Haha, see my previous comment about this. I fully blame Steve Martin and a comedy album I memorized as a kid. I continue to mess it up about that. Makes a good laugh. Just search for “Steve Martin Plumber Joke”
Professional Video, it really will help me. Only I have a question related to the connectors inside the door. Is there any connector that receives ground from the Dome Light Switch? My girlfriend wanted to add LED lights under the front doors. I hope you will help me. ;-) Thank you.
anybody know if the process is similar for a 2015 Elantra? Found myself in the same situation as you that I backed out of tight garage and there went my passenger side mirror
+AsterDXZ I'm going to guess that it is the same or quite similar. Easy to take off the panel and look. Also look at the part description as it often shows the models.
Thanks for the directions- worked perfectly. I have a 2016 Elantra with turn signal and it was the passenger side that was replaced. The dealer wanted to charge $500 and I ordered it online for $123 (109+shipping) at partsgeek.com. My car is silver & black so the base came in black with a white colored plastic backing my dilemma now is trying to reinstall the silver backing that I had originally to the new mirror any suggestions?
Hi there from Toronto..your video looks great! I cracked the outer case on my driver side mirror backing out of the garage 😞. The dealership said they have to replace the entire unit (total cost approx $600 Canadian). I have a black 2014 Hyundai Elantra GLS 4 dr sedan. Any chance u want to sell ur cover. If not, can u suggest somewhere to buy the part. Thanks so much! Shahila
Hey there. You can get the full assembly (which is what I show in my video) and easily replace it yourself on Amazon. The assembly includes the mirror and case (which I had cracked doing the same thing as you).
You have to just buy the whole thing, they don't sell just the plastic casings. The mirror he is using is $47 on Amazon right now, just buy the whole thing.
Some day they MIGHT (or might Not) use a mirror that swings back on a spring when hit, and doesn't break. Some type of spring attachment, just swing it BACK again. I'm pretty sure such a thing EXISTS. They WANT us to buy thousands of these, mebbe HUNDREDS of thousands per year as replacements.
Pops a mech not me. That cloth idea was nice ty. Also had difficulty with the dealer your not cheap there just high on drugs. they wanted 186$ for the mirror and 400+ for install. GTFO-Of here. I bought the mirror straight from hyundai for 58 bucks and installed it in 10 minutes after watching this vid. Saying price gauging is an under statement. I buy a vehicle every 3-4 years Ill never buy from that dealer again. Not that it matters. Virginia beach VA.

Thank you! Saved me money and it only took a few minutes to replace my wife’s side mirror after watching. Big thanks!
So glad that the video help! Thanks for the feedback.
You’re amazing! I’m not a woman who’s good at using tools and I was able to replace my mirror with no help watching this video , Thanks so much

Thanks for the video, just replaced my wife's passenger side mirror. That was super easy
Took me 10 minutes to watch this video and 10 minutes to actually go and do it, it went very smoothly, thank you for this video!

"Sprocket" I had to laugh. No worries you made the video fun with excellent details. Thank you for not having a boring video.
Haha yeah. I blame a comedy routine from Steve Martin that I memorized as a child -

Dear Mr.HighTechDad . . . Huge THANKs for the tips on the Mirror Replacement Vid . . . came in Handy just when I needed it most! Nice Job!
Thanks for the kind words! I’m glad that it helped you out!
Hey! Just thought I should drop a comment. It worked for me. This same method works for Elantra 2014. Thanks a bunch.
Thank you for posting! Got my part from Ebay Salvage to match the color of my car, watched this video and was done in 15 minutes (and I'm not handy at all!)
Great video!Thank you!I was car swiped and thought replacing this would be hard but it was suuuuper easy thanks to you!
Worked great on my 2012 Elantra. Thanks!
I hope this works for 2014 Hyundai Accent. They're similar. Going to try it today.
Thank you for your help I just finished putting mine on my 2013 Elantra
Thank you, i have a passenger side mirror coming in, and i feel more confident about replacing it, the shop wants 300 for this
Thanks man!! Helped a lot!!!
Thanks for making this video. I just got sideswiped today and didn't know that it was so easy to fix myself
Wow! Hope you are ok! Yes, it’s quite easy to do.
@@Hightechdad Yeah I'm okay and so was the woman who was driving. I'm just glad that there was no body damage on my end. Her driver door was dented though because my car impacted hers on the side as she was trying to pass me while I was getting ready to go around the car in front of me
Thank you so much for making this tutorial!
VERY accurate video help.. actually took me 9 minutes and I'm not mechanically inclined!!! thanks HTD
Glad it help and thx for the comment!
Thanks so much! So glad I can do this myself. This will save me time and money. You are awesome!
Thank you for your help. Just finished mine on my 2013 Elantra
Got it out of state on a same yr and color car
Thanks so much for your video. It helped me replace the driver's side mirror on my Hyundai Elantra 2008.
Yay! Glad that it helped!

Thanks for posting - made things easy and let me know what to watch out for!
Great! Glad it helped!
At 5:40, what you want to be using is a 10mm "open-end" wrench so that you don't have to encircle the entire nut while working on it.
Thank you. This worked for my 2014 Elantra coupe. None of the nuts were shielded, but the aftermarket mirror had the electrical connection flipped 180 from the OEM mirror.
Glad that it worked. My mirror didn’t have electrical for the blinker (older model). Was it an issue when installing?
@11:32, you have a flat wrench kinda tool. Does that tool have a specific name?
Hyundai wanted $325CA in my area for a replacement mirror. Found an aftermarket one for $94CA. Seems like something I can do. 👍🏻
Did it actually work??
Any idea of how to remove the outer plastic cover on the side mirror... I figured it would be easier to just switch out the cover on the replacement with the original.
Thank you, very informative, now I can replace my daughters side view mirror!
Super! Yes, the actual process is pretty darn easy! Glad the video helped!
Thanks ... needed this info to disconnect the wires ... motor wasnt switchin off.
Great job sir
Know if that would be the same for a 6-gen (2015-2019), specifically 2017?
Worked like a charm. My mirror is just black instead of silver, but it works. A little individuality!
+Kathleen Shaw 🤣
HighTechDad what If my assembly is great but my mirror and the frame around it is off with the wires exposed? Is there a part for that or do I need the entire assembly like you demonstrated?
So easy! Thank you
Literally saved me 1000 bucksm thanks!
Fantastic! Glad the video helped out!
Good onya for tackling something you're obviously not familiar with!
Great and informative video. However, I would feel bad if I didn't mention that the wrench you are using is a "socket" wrench or a ratchet; not a "sprocket" wrench. It was funny to hear, as you said it so many times it got stuck in my head a bit. Thanks again for the video, though. Very good job!
But sprocket is just such a fun word to say! :)
video on replacing the motor mount on a 2014 elantra
Did this replacement on my i30 , must have been a patented part as I found the mirror adjustment was not as far as the genuine part . Good how to guide
This is a life saver
would you happen to know if the process would be the same for Hyundai elantra 2013 mirror with a turn signal?
+strawberrysteph I'm almost 100% positive that the process is the same. The plug would just have additional cable in it.
strawberrysteph did you end up changing it? I want to upgrade my side mirror with one that have a turn signal. I just don’t know if it will be compatible.
Just did this thanks so much!
Great job! Hope the video help!
Thanks for the tips!
4:49 - Never in my life have I heard a SOCKET referred to as a SPROCKET!!!
Haha, see my previous comment about this. I fully blame Steve Martin and a comedy album I memorized as a kid. I continue to mess it up about that. Makes a good laugh. Just search for “Steve Martin Plumber Joke”
@@Hightechdad "It says socket, not sprocket!!" I remember that joke! I had the 'Let's Get Small' album, too. Funny stuff
Just a suggestion, Keep the mirror and maybe the back cap if it’s still in good shape from the old one just in case.
Great advice
Is this auto fold? If no can I modify to auto fold?
Mine is not auto fold. I think it depends on the year and model and if your door is wired appropriately.
Awesome video
Does this work eith the 2012??
So helpful thank you!!
Glad that it helped you and thanks for the comment!
How do you replace the black cover in the back with a colored cover that matches color of the car?
+Hovik Sarkissian I have a black car so I didn't need to do that. But I read you can paint that black part. Not sure how to do though.
Professional Video, it really will help me. Only I have a question related to the connectors inside the door. Is there any connector that receives ground from the Dome Light Switch? My girlfriend wanted to add LED lights under the front doors. I hope you will help me. ;-) Thank you.
Glad you liked the video! Sorry, I’m truly not a car guy. Just know how to fix a few things. Good luck!
anybody know if the process is similar for a 2015 Elantra? Found myself in the same situation as you that I backed out of tight garage and there went my passenger side mirror
+AsterDXZ I'm going to guess that it is the same or quite similar. Easy to take off the panel and look. Also look at the part description as it often shows the models.
I have a 2016 Elantra and it was the same procedure.
I have the same car (2013 ELANTRA). Do you know if we can buy the one with the turn signals??? Or will our car not read the signals?
I don't believe the wiring is in there to control the turn signals. I didn't want to take a chance.
HighTechDad you are correct. I called my dealership and they said it would need modifications. Thank you for your reply
Excellent
2:00 Did you mean to say SOCKET? Funny guy!
The one of my car mirror failed down but the mirror is still standing
Thanks for the directions- worked perfectly. I have a 2016 Elantra with turn signal and it was the passenger side that was replaced. The dealer wanted to charge $500 and I ordered it online for $123 (109+shipping) at partsgeek.com.
My car is silver & black so the base came in black with a white colored plastic backing my dilemma now is trying to reinstall the silver backing that I had originally to the new mirror any suggestions?
Hmm that’s tricky. I didn’t have the luxury of having the turn signal and luckily my car is black so it matched out of the box. Sorry.
Thank you soooo muchhhhhhh
Great video buddy however it's a socket not a sprocket a sprocket is on a bicycle

its socket, not sprocket. thought id be that guy that puts that out there. infomative video .
+rhikdavis haha, like I said, I'm more of a tech guy than a car guy. But you did remind me of a Steve Martin comedy skit.
Its a SOCKET, not SPROCKET. Good info though.
.............thanks.
@@abaddonbolero9605 it's a ratchet, not a socket or a sprocket.
@@Jaapman100 the ratchet is the handle the socket fastens to. The socket is the 10mm
Put a small piece of tape or paper on the nut so there is more friction holding the nut into the "sprocket". Lmao.
Some day they MIGHT (or might Not) use a mirror that swings back on a spring when hit, and doesn't break. Some type of spring attachment, just swing it BACK again. I'm pretty sure such a thing EXISTS. They WANT us to buy thousands of these, mebbe HUNDREDS of thousands per year as replacements.
The sprocket and sprocket wrench lmao socket wrench
"Socket wrench", not "sprocket".
ur arm is blocking............. hello
