Update...
Talked with the engineer at Muth, I seem not to be the only one who had a slight problem with the pivot ring.
They will be making some note in their procedures to make sure that ring is not still attached to the old mirror, and if so, switch it to the new mirror, prior to install.
They are also sending me a replacement for the mirror that broke AT NO COST.
They are actually a good company to work with.
Once, I finish up, I'll take some photos, of how to bypass the rubber sock between the door and the frame. This was an area that is next to impossible to do per their instructions, especially the passenger side.

From what I have learned, and what Muth has learned, will create a better set of instructions. They will never tell you to go on the outside of the rubber sock, but I will, and if you seal the areas where you come out of the sock and go into the grommet, you wlll have no water intrusion problem.

I should have the replacement mirror here in a few days. To connect the inside wiring is less than 1.2 hour, and that includes fishing the wires through the underside of the I/P to behind the cluster, and connecting the two grounds. To replace the mirrors while on the vehicle is about (this is a guess) two or three minutes per side (remember, they are already wired).
