03 Expy mirror bulb relpacement ??

Hi, I was wondering how I get to the bulb on the drivers side mirror... The clear bulb went out that is the curtesy light when the doors are opened.. Anyone have a clue? I already cracked the plastic and had to glue it back on and don't want to ruin it further...

From the '03 service manual:

Exterior Mirror Glass Printable View (94 KB)

Removal and Installation

Position the exterior mirror glass in a downward position to obtain a gap at the edge of the mirror.

WARNING: Place a shop towel between the exterior mirror glass and the hand to avoid personal injury in the instance of glass breakage.

Disengage the mirror glass.
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver between the mirror glass tabs and the mounting plate, and rotate to separate the locking tabs from the mounting plate.
Carefully pull the top edge of the glass away from the exterior mirror housing.

If equipped, disconnect the heated mirror electrical connectors and remove the glass.

To install, reverse the removal procedure.
Rotate the exterior mirror glass in all directions after the installation to make sure all clips are completely attached.
With the glass out of the way, you should be able to see all the bulbs in there.

Hope that helps!
