HELP!! Side mirror

Hi all,

I was most recently annoyed by some lost soul who thought it was ok to hit my side mirror and not leave contact information. That being said, I found this replacement on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Driver-Mirro...#ht_500wt_1156. Problem being I have an '08 and I am not sure the mirror will fit.

can ANYONE tell me if this would fit and how I remove my old broken mirror and replace it?

http://www.puddlelights.com/manual/puddlelights.pdf Use this DIY to get access to the bolts to remove your current mirror. Not sure if an 09 is the same though

Wow ok sorry, I cant for the life of me find the part number. It isn't in the book and I cant find a reference online. I did come across a few ebay auctions that say the mirrors should work for 03-11 though if that is any consolation
