side folding mirror fixed with pics

Hi i was reading about fixing my side mirrors but nobody showes pics so i took chance to fix it or break it.

I tried on driver side first and it worked i didn't have to open pass side but you may have to try both.

4th pick up the broken (steel) piece and b4 you try to put it back on the switch make sure tight the steel end with plier so it will fit properly on the switch. it will fit like this pic below

5th put the switch back in the cover and slide it back in the mirror and try if the steel thing needs little adjusting like this pic (1 below) or you can try it without putting cover in see pic (2 below)
