Shut up.

I'm having trouble getting my C101 apart. That screw loosens but won't come out. Am I missing something? I got all my grounds cleaned up already.

Pre-97 and 97+. Late model mirrors are bolt-on. Doors don't have to be changed.

Only one screw in the middle. Try over on the WJ forum for more advice.

I'll try WranglerForum.
Do you recall the size? My 6mm doesn't fit, but the 7mm feels like it spins. I don't know that I have any standard sockets in such small sizes.

I don't remember. Want me to go check for you? It will be a minute. I've got to shut the computer off while I switch from gen power to the grid again.
