To replace the exterior rearview mirror on a Ford Escape, first remove the door panel. To do this, unscrew the bolts that secure it. These are located inside the handle cavity, near the window switch, and at the bottom of the panel.

By removing these screws and disconnecting the connectors inside, you can detach the panel to access the screws for the mirror. You can then unscrew them and remove the mirror from the outside, replacing it with a new one.
