DIY CF Mirror Cap install

I am looking for a DIY CF Mirror Cap Install. I've tried the search feature but no luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you for your time.

Look on the F30 forum, there is a DIY. It is the same. If you start from the inner bottom corner and pry with a plastic trim tool they pop out pretty easily. You pretty much just pull it out with a bit of force.

^^Correct.

But you will find several posts with pictures if you search MIRRORS on the Cosmetic Mods forum.

If you are doing OEM CF you need to pull the mirror too it requires bolts from the inside. If aftermarket just snap on.
