HI, The black triangle trim piece by the driver side mirror came loose, look like it should snap in but it doesn't. I ordered a new one. anyone have to replace this? if so any hints?

3 screws hold that in place. I recently removed them when painting my mirrors.
You'll have to remove the door panel to get at those 3 screws. I believe they are T10 screws. I can verify if you need it.

Also, you may have to loosen the mirrors to get them off. It seems like I remember having to remove the mirror first but I'm not 100% on that. That trim piece has tabs that prevent you from just sliding it up, forward, or back and out.
