Thank you! Very helpful step-by-step instructions. Saved me hundreds of dollars. Only thing I would change/add is when peeling vapor barrier (6:07 into the video), instead of rolling it inward, if you just pull it backward and just fold it flat, and then clamp against cables you unplugged earlier from Window control unit with a clip or even a small piece of tape temporarily to get it out of your way, this will save you time when putting it back together. Because if you roll it inward like at 6:07, glue residue left on the paper will stick to itself, and it's not going to be easy to pull the paper back to its original form later. I hope this helps.
Perfect info bud. Replaced mine in 20 minutes. 2 issues I had, I used a DULL razor blade.. Very annoying. And I forgot to put the rubber plug back in place supporting the vapor barrier. Other than that, it went great . Thanks.
Thanks for the video, it is well detailed and straight forward, someone knocked off my side mirror and Honda is charging me an arm and a leg to replace it. Now I know how to do, I just need to find where to buy a new one.
I have the same problem. The mirror is available, but not the mirror cap that matches the color of the paint. My existing one is unmarred on the broken mirror, but I'm reluctant trying to get it off as the clips on those things break easily when trying to remove them from the mirror.
Jeeze, people keep on hating on our Civics! The same thing happened to me as well. I found a few used ones for $500, so I ended up getting the original from Honda dealer for $550.
For anyone else wondering like I was (surprised no one else is asking) I asked the Honda dealership and they said they use 3M General Trim Adhesive (Auto, 08088) for the vapor barrier, for the stuff that's being cut off in the video. It might not be the same adhesive and they said they used to have a Honda custom adhesive, even across different cars, but they confirmed this should work either way even if your car has another adhesive currently.
Seems I have the same story as a few people in the comments; got sideswiped and need to replace. For anyone who might see this, I found a mirror (yes powered) for $85 on 1A auto part and it comes with a lifetime warranty. When it arrives I’ll come back to rate it
The adhesive that you took off with the razor blade doesnt apply to my hatch back, instead its a gluey slimey black, looks almost like condensed crude oil. so anoying
@@pedroteles8707 yup, it was a bit messy but finished and i lost one nut because i didnt follow the part where he put the tape in the socket. So i recommend doing that. lol
Some a*#$hol3 sideswiped my mirror and now just dangling thank God this was very helpful?question my handle to open my door from the inside it won't open on the passenger side it's so annoying I really think that the dealership did it last time I got an oil change they forgot to tighten the bottom cover and was dragging on the floor literally smh
great video! i currently have a 2022 civic sport. is there any way i could get a touring mirror and plug it in and use the features on it, or is there things i would need that i couldn’t get (blind spot, turn signal)
I dunno if it’s just a Canada thing but I’ve been waiting over two months now for a replacement side view mirror for my 2022 Civic Sports Touring hatchback. The repair shop says the order is now on Critical. This supply crisis SUCKS.
Not sure if there was a change between model years or trim etc but my vehicle did not have adhesive but had very gooey liquid gasket type material as opposed to adhesive that needed to be cut. Very messy to work around/with but I was able to peel the plastic back to access the m6 nuts easily.
Hey thank you so much for all your videos. They’re great! Do you know how to remove the exterior, triangular trim piece right above the side mirror? That black cap that is at the mirror, below the top window trim, and meets right at the fender corner? Does it just pop off with snaps or something? Trying to chrome delete my car and thinking it might be easier to remove that if it just pops off but I can’t tell.
Thank you for the video! I searched online for the 10mm socket extension (Amazon, Home Depot, etc.) and can't seem to find the right product. Could you possibly point me in the right direction? Is the extension separate from the 10mm socket itself?
Late reply, but yes. The socket and extensions are separate. Make sure you get the right sized extension to fir the socket and the wrench. ( 1/4 , 3/8, 1/2 )
Is there anything special you do when installing the new mirror in terms of restoring the vapor barrier? Are you just mushing the adhesive still on the door and on the vapor barrier back together, or does any new adhesive need to be applied?
Because this is a newer model just use the existing adhesive and press it back together. As the cars age the adhesive tends to harden and lose stickiness at that point you can tape the vapor barrier back in place or use an adhesive spray.
I just did my passenger side mirror with the cap , and from a Honda dealer in South Florida. Everything along with tax was $441.00 . Which makes me wonder why those people on €-Bay are asking $450.00 + for a used mirror. Glad I checked the dealer first.
I dropped 1 and it was a pain lol. I used a second set of hands to hold a flashlight, a slim jim ( small thin long piece of metal to unlock car doors ) to pry up the nut just high enough to grab it with my extended magnet.
Hey I have a question, I have a friend who is willing to sell me a TOURING passenger side mirror for my Honda civic Sport. Does anyone think that there will be any problems if I connect it into my Honda civic sport? I kinda need it tho

Appreciate this. Just replaced the side mirror on my daughter’s civic. Helpful instructions.
Thanks, Never could've replaced my passenger mirror on my 22 Si without this video! Masking tape idea was pure genius
Where did you get that mirror brother..?
did this and still lost 3 nuts lol
Did you have to do any recalibration? The shop tells me calibration is required
Perfect info bud. Replaced mine in 20 minutes. 2 issues I had, I used a DULL razor blade.. Very annoying. And I forgot to put the rubber plug back in place supporting the vapor barrier. Other than that, it went great . Thanks.
That’s awesome! I’m glad I was able to help you! :)
Where did you buy the replacement mirror?
Hi Craig! Where were you able to buy your replacement mirror? Thanks for the help in advance!
Will be replacing mine today, so wish me luck!
Update: Just finished replacing! Thank you so much
Where did you get the replacement from?
Thanks for the video, it is well detailed and straight forward, someone knocked off my side mirror and Honda is charging me an arm and a leg to replace it. Now I know how to do, I just need to find where to buy a new one.
Bro if you found one lmk! I’m in the same situation.
@@GreyFox405 sameee
hey did you found one?

This video was extremely helpful and informative. Its being saved thank you !

I contacted them and they said it doesn't fit my 2022 Honda Civic Sport, weird
I received the OEM part for $390.00 Today came complete with the base and cover.
I need one for the passenger side is it the same process ?
Yep, same process
@@DIYHonda thank you
Fantastic video, dealer was charging me 200 for labor on this replacement 🥳
The adhesive that you took off with the razor blade doesnt apply to my hatch back, instead its a gluey slimey black, looks almost like condensed crude oil. so anoying
Same!!!! I kept touching it and would get all over my tools and iPad lmaoo
Só what you did it?

I’m curious as well
Thanks for the video super helpful!!, where would be the best place to order a new replacement
Best place right now is your local dealership.
Could you possibly do a video on how to replace the glass.
Where to get parts for my honda civic 2022 sports i got sideswiped my passenger side mirror.
Honda dealer asking for 660 for just parts .
I dunno if it’s just a Canada thing but I’ve been waiting over two months now for a replacement side view mirror for my 2022 Civic Sports Touring hatchback. The repair shop says the order is now on Critical. This supply crisis SUCKS.
Hey man i have the same car and the same problem i looked everywhere
Oh fuck...
Not sure if there was a change between model years or trim etc but my vehicle did not have adhesive but had very gooey liquid gasket type material as opposed to adhesive that needed to be cut. Very messy to work around/with but I was able to peel the plastic back to access the m6 nuts easily.
Great video, it worked for my 2024 civic too.
Can you show how to fix a loose mirror handle? The thing that holds the mirror still, because mind got loose for no reason lol
Hi, do you know how to replace a broken side mirror glass? Thanks!
Need this question answered please!!!! 7 pins or 3 pins on the plug? 23 Sport Sedan.
I subscribed can we get door handle removal please! Front and rear thank you great videos
would this be the same process for the passenger side?
Anyone know if I can upgrade the mirrors to the ones with sensors/blind spots if my current mirrors are only electric?
Hey thank you so much for all your videos. They’re great!
Do you know how to remove the exterior, triangular trim piece right above the side mirror? That black cap that is at the mirror, below the top window trim, and meets right at the fender corner?
Does it just pop off with snaps or something? Trying to chrome delete my car and thinking it might be easier to remove that if it just pops off but I can’t tell.
I’ll get a video made for that part.
@@DIYHonda that would be extremely helpful for a lot of people when it comes to wrapping the trim chrome!
just crashed mine and only mirror was damaged thankfully, thanks for the tutorial
No problem, glad I could help!
Bro from where did you buy the mirror. Was how much ?
@@harsimransingh9998 I got it for 400 Canadian dollars, I have friends in the junk yard business and one of them got it for me.
Did u put the original 1 I wonder if they got different types
Thank you for the video! I searched online for the 10mm socket extension (Amazon, Home Depot, etc.) and can't seem to find the right product. Could you possibly point me in the right direction? Is the extension separate from the 10mm socket itself?
Late reply, but yes. The socket and extensions are separate. Make sure you get the right sized extension to fir the socket and the wrench. ( 1/4 , 3/8, 1/2 )
Would the process be similar for my 2023 Honda HR-V? The side mirror is attached in a similar place on the door.
Awesome video dude, anything notable for replacing the passenger side?
Is there anything special you do when installing the new mirror in terms of restoring the vapor barrier? Are you just mushing the adhesive still on the door and on the vapor barrier back together, or does any new adhesive need to be applied?
Because this is a newer model just use the existing adhesive and press it back together. As the cars age the adhesive tends to harden and lose stickiness at that point you can tape the vapor barrier back in place or use an adhesive spray.
okay so where do I get an original replacement mirror?
You sir. are awesome. Thanks.
You’re the goat man, Thank you!
What’s the cost of this driver side mirror?
I just did my passenger side mirror with the cap , and from a Honda dealer in South Florida. Everything along with tax was $441.00 . Which makes me wonder why those people on €-Bay are asking $450.00 + for a used mirror. Glad I checked the dealer first.
Would you make a video to remove and reinstall the rearview mirror for 11th gen! 😢😢 There is literally nothing on the internet and we need answers lol
My 2023 Civic mirror is heated, has Blind Spot Monitor and LED, will it be the same or more complicated?
Same exact way. Just remember to plug everything back into the mirror.
Can you tell me how should I fish out the mirror nut that falls down the crack? i got like 3 down there
I dropped 1 and it was a pain lol. I used a second set of hands to hold a flashlight, a slim jim ( small thin long piece of metal to unlock car doors ) to pry up the nut just high enough to grab it with my extended magnet.
@@ericmoney9734 I actually just unhooked the speaker and that was massively easy at the end of the day lol
