mirror glass replacement

Does anyone know how to replace the glass on the outside mirror on an 01 ML?

Thanks.

RE: mirror glass replacement

I watched it done one time on another vehicle and it is not easy. The guy hand cut a piece of glass with a vibrating etcher, tapped the old one out with the end of a glass cutter and glued the new one in. He broke a couple of pieces before he got one to work. It would probably be easier and cheaper just to replace the entire mirror, especially if it's the passenger side because it's the special concaved glass.

Hmm. 02+ versions are fairly easy to do.. Time for a conversion?
