Does it feel bigger/better viewframe than the original mirror?

Well, not really. While you aren't required to pay for things that you did not order, you ARE required to return them if they were shipped by accident. Taking advantage of a shipping error isn't OK.

LOL, I did not make this up, do your own research, its federal law. I do not make federal laws, just enforce them.

Mirrors look great folks, keep the pics coming.

It does for sure.

Does it seem like the arm angle will have any issues? I wonder if you can pop out the arm from the Ford mirror and pop it onto the Kia? I wonder if that little ball joint is standard too.

Trust...it fits.

Was an easy and nice looking $19 mod. Easy to pull power from the overhead dome lights.

Any trick to getting that light assembly open? Don't want to break anything.

The dome light/sunglass holder assembly? I opened the sunglass holder, put my four fingers in there and gave both corners a good tug straight down.

I have a Lariat and moon roof, no sunglass holder.

Does it pull down from the inside cabin side or the windshield side?

I couldn’t be certain what that setup looks like. I don’t want to tell you wrong.

I used a panel removal tool here to remove the dark colored piece just about the mirror.

Here I opened the sunglass holder and pulled down.

The hard part for me were the two clips at the back of the assembly. They are flap and lay horizontal. I broke them both, but was able to hot glue them back on and they held great. Start in the front corner and push in and down.
