Most vehicles have the mirror mounted directly onto the glass;
therefore improper tools or techniques used in the removal of
existing mirror or installation of MD4BT could result in a
damaged or broken windshield. Rydeen is not responsible for
damage to the windshield caused by installation.
1) Remove the existing mirror and unplug a connector if one exists. (Note: All
vehicles use different mounting solutions. If necessary, consult your local
automotive dealer or installation professional for specific instructions.)
2) Attach the vehicle-specific mounting stem (sold
separately) to the back of the mirror using the
supplied washers and screws, starting with the
holes nearest the top of mirror housing.
3) Mount the MD4BT using supplied screw. Slide or
twist it onto the factory mounting base and carefully
tighten the screw until secure.
