Well &^%$^$! My dealer told me otherwise, then lenses were separate. I see I have been misinformed!

To get the cover off, tip your mirror down look behind it with a flashlight and you'll see a couple of locking tabs that go through plastic slots. Push the tabs to the side with a long skinny screwdriver while pulling the cover off with your fingernails. Tip the mirror up and repeat with the bottom tabs. Unplug the light harness, plug into the replacement cover and push the replacement cover into place until you hear the little tabs click into place. Done!

The mirror cover contains the clearance light and turn signal; amber and red. The harness plugs into the rear of the compartment in the cover that contains the LED's for these lights.

Thanks for the disassembly info. I know I could have gotten it cheaper but I wanted it quick. I was worried about water getting in and shorting out the lights. Maybe a unwarranted concern but sometimes going cheaper costs you more in the long run. By the way ford prices are all over the place and way to high. Last week a friend got injector o rings for a 7.3 IDI price at IH was .16 cents apiece but they didn't have enough so went to ford for the last couple and they charged 1.00 a piece.
