1997 Mercury Tracer mirror, power

The middle asking price for a used one is $41.53, across 19 live eBay listings for the 1996–1999 generation. Half of them ask between $37.50 and $51.25. That’s what sellers are asking, not what buyers paid. Sold prices aren’t published anywhere you can count on, and asking prices usually run about a quarter higher than what things sell for — so we say which one this is.

How it comes off

  1. Take off the small triangle trim inside the door at the mirror, or the door panel where it hides the nuts.
  2. Unplug the mirror.
  3. Hold the mirror from outside while you remove the nuts, then lift it off.

The usual order on most cars. A 1997 Mercury Tracer may hide a screw or a clip somewhere else: if a piece will not move, look for what is still holding it before you pry harder.

What to bring for it

Typical sizes, not a promise for every car. Everything to bring to a pull-your-own yard.

Is it worth pulling?

That depends on what the yard charges for it and how long it takes to get off the car, and on where it sits against the other 51 parts on a 1997 Mercury Tracer that have a market. The full sheet for this vehicle ranks all of them by what you save and by what you clear.
