Yes there are pics, but they wont show up here i believe, i can fax them. the mirror is simple to remove, manually push the inner part all the way in, and on the outside edge, pull it, it will unsnap.

they are from vida.

i took out the mirror glass, was kinda scary but there is nothing wrong with it behind there, how come it stopped getting heated ?

the other side still heats up fine ?!?!?!? should i just try to find a used mirror and replace it ?

I guess you can see if you have voltage at the terminals.

great idea, ill try that, and if there is voltage present then there is something wrong with the element thats glued to the glass ?

otherwise its something with the whole circuit at which point i should just get used to driving that way ??!!!?? ;-(

SVT, I could use those instructions or pictures. My outside temp sensor has stopped working. Dealer tells me on a 2003 XC70 there is one in each mirror. I suspect i have to pull off the mirror to get at the sensor somewhere in behind. My mirror cases are solid one piece....so to get at guts it must be by first removing the mirror.
