Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2017 Subaru Forester, we're going to be showing you how to install the K-Source replacement side mirror, but before we do that, Why don't we check it out and make sure that this is the right thing for you So, first and foremost, I do want to mention that these mirrors are sold individually. So if you need, say just the passenger side, you can pick that one up, but if you need two or one of both to match, you can also grab the driver's side. You know, for a replacement side mirror, really not much to it. Honestly, if I we're looking at 'em, I would just want something that looked good, looked original and fit well. And this kind of checks all those boxes for me, you know, it's a direct-type replacement and you can have some confidence knowing, you know, when you put this on the side of your Subaru, it's gonna line up and it's gonna work. But that said, and you know, just to kind of give you an example, here's our factory mirror, the one that was originally on it, and it had broken down here, but, you know, just to kind of give you an image of that, you can see they're pretty much identical. Now, granted, these are not painted to match, but not really a big deal. Our customer actually replaced both sides and looks really good, you know, when they both match, doesn't really stick out or isn't really all that noticeable. So essentially, this mirror, it's going to have a few different functions. That we can still retain, you know, to power when, so, you know, you're still going to be able to adjust this from your driver's seat and change it to the angle that you want. These are also going to be heated. So that function will work as well. And in our case today, we have the turn signal and that actually works. And I was kind of surprised because our factory mirror actually did not have this on there, but the connector was the same, everything plugged in and this actually started to work. Now, you know, I can't speak for every single Forester out there, if that's going to be the case for you as well. But you know, to my surprise, it did work and you might get lucky also. So at the end of the day, you know, you couldn't really ask for too much more out of a replacement mirror. It's going to look good and just work as well, really nice fitment. Now as far as getting it installed, really not too bad, actually, you don't need a bunch of crazy tools or anything like that. You're only going to have to pop the door panel off to get to the bolts in here, but it comes apart pretty easy, more or less, it kind of just snaps apart and you got more than enough room to get them swapped out. But speaking of that, why don't we go ahead and do it together now To begin our installation, first thing that we need to do is remove our original mirror. And so you want to make sure that your window is rolled all the way up and your car is turned off. And the way to get the original mirror off is actually through the inside, behind our door panel. So we'll open up our door and get started. So if you look at our door handle, the little plastic piece behind it, there's a small cover. You can take a pick or a flat head screwdriver, pop that open, and that's going to expose a Phillips head screw, take our driver here, and get that one pulled out. And then we're going to have this, your door handle here, where you actually grab it to open and close it. This silver portion is actually a cover and it's going to be a little tricky to see, but up here in this corner, there's a small cutout. And what you can do is kind of get your tool behind it, pry up on it, that cover will pop off. And once that is out of the way, we're going to have two more Phillips head screws. So on the top and one on the bottom, I'll go ahead and get both of those out as well. So now the only thing left that's holding our door panel on is some plastic fasteners actually behind it. And what you're going to do is take a trim tool like this, and you want to get in behind there, and it's really tricky to see, but a lot of times you can actually start to feel that plastic fastener. I don'
