99 Suburban visors w/vanity mirrors

Hi all,
I'm in the middle of trying to replace my hubby's visors and am having trouble with the wiring hookups for the vanity mirrors. It looks like it I should be able to slide a flat screwdriver under one part, pop out the little locking "nub" (for lack of a better term) and slide the whole thing out. But, it's just not working that way! Can someone please shed some light on this for me? I'd be so thankful!

You've got the right idea.  Those inline connectors sometimes are very snug, but yes, just pry up the locking tab and pull them apart.

Phew! So I'm not going crazy! I'm just afraid of snapping off that plastic piece (because that would be my luck. Bad enough I broke one of the visors the 1st time, hence why I'm trying to fix it!)

Yay!! I got it and have them installed. God, it shouldn't have taken that long (well, a trip into town desparately trying to find a store that had a Chilton or Haynes manual didn't help). Thanks RonH for your advice! Now, lets see if hubby notices...

Thanks again!

I had to take drivers side vanity off,and cut wires to light, because lid broke and light was staying on.And now I cant seem to get mirror back on.Any help would be appreciated....

Yeah, that's why we had to replace the whole visor. I pulled the mirror assembly all apart one day thinking that we could just replace the tab or mirror assembly, but no. We ended up replacing both visors, figuring that the other one would break before too long.

So as far as putting the mirror assembly back together, I'm afraid I won't be much help, sorry!

Damn cars, just don't make them like they used to...
