Fiance' is in Dallas, I'm Raleigh. About to go there and move her here. Her 97 Grand Am Door Lock button and Mirror button on Driver Door has, in her words, pushed through and fell into the armrest. Since both switches have pushed through, do I need to order the switches, or some assembly that they're both mounted in? Any ideas?
I'd like to order the parts and have them there when i arrive to fix this before we hit the road.

Yes, you need to order the assembly that they switches are mounted to. You will remove the door panel if needed and the whole thing will come out the back.

The manual says there is a bezel that will remove but depending on what it look like, you may need to remove the door panel so here is a guide that will help with this.

Please find the process from the manual below on how to replace this. Let us know if you have other questions.

Thanks
