    How does one remove the front housing of the outside rear view mirrors? Do they just pop off if you pull them out (forward)?

    Yes, you can just work your fingernails between the painted and black plastic and give a tug. Pops back on with a little bump.

    Hello,

    I am actually looking for a place to buy the black hard-plastic that goes around the mirror, mine is busted and I was hoping to replace just that part without buying a whole new mirror. Everything else is perfectly fine, just the plastic got a piece taken out of it.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Hello treousa, welcome to PriusChat! :welcome:
    I don't think you can get just the black plastic housing. Take a look here.
