Is there way to remove the 3 cable from a driver side remote mirror (A/E/B Body) and still be able to reattach/reassemble the mirror? It looks like there are some type of metal barrel crimped on the end of each cable,and if you to just clip them off to remove the cables from the housing(mirror glass end),there my not be enough cable left to try and reattach them.Any suggestions?
It's easy.
First you need to notice that the cables and barrels is color coded. You need to reproduce this so you get the cables back in the right slot. Colored electrical tape works well. Remember you have to mark BOTH the barrel and cable.
Next take a small flat bladed screwdriver and slowly work the jaws of the clamp apart. You want to get it a minimal distance apart then slip the cable out. Once you have all three out you can separate the two pieces.
