 Any advice on how difficult Side mirror removal/repl is on 2017 F3-Ltd?
I am thinking of getting A-arm lights that connect to the blinker system - they A-arm install looks easy, my hesitation comes from removal of the side mirrors to connect the electric to the blinkers. Any advice or thoughts on the removal AND attachment back of the mirrors. Thanks in advance.

Not rude at all - I was looking for a difficulty factor not how to do it.
Thanks,

Jim, I did that on my ‘16 F3-L, but quite I while ago, so my memory is vague on the actual process. I do not remember it being difficult or time consuming…..just a few bolts. There would probably be a video somewhere on the Lamonster site that would show the process. If I can find it I’ll post the link.

Have read problems with mirror shell coming off unexpectedly without any work mentioned. Hopefully not a problem, maybe something else to review.

Yeah…..good catch, Bfromia. It would certainly be worthwhile looking at buying and installing Lamonts vibration removing bolts and upgraded shell clips at the same time as your a-arm install, Jim.
