What Is the APDTY 67490 Mirror Glass Assembly?
The APDTY 67490 is a heated side view mirror glass replacement for the right (passenger) side of select Honda Accord Hybrid vehicles. Unlike a complete mirror assembly, this is just the glass element bonded to a plastic backing plate, with the heating element embedded inside. When your mirror glass is cracked, shattered, or suffering from silvering/delamination, this assembly lets you replace only the glass instead of the entire expensive housing.
The integrated heater melts frost, ice, and condensation in cold weather, maintaining clear visibility. The plastic backing plate clips or adheres into the existing mirror housing, making installation straightforward for DIYers and shops alike.
Which Vehicles Does APDTY 67490 Fit?
According to verified product data, APDTY 67490 is compatible with:
- 2006 Honda Accord Hybrid (all submodels)
- 2007 Honda Accord Hybrid (all submodels)
This fitment is specific to the Hybrid variant of the Accord and applies to the right (passenger) side only. Standard gasoline Accord models from these years may use different mirror glass. Always check the live compatibility chart on the product page or compare your original OE part number (76203SEAC42) to confirm exact fit before ordering.
What Are the Symptoms of a Damaged Mirror Glass?
Common signs you need to replace your side mirror glass include:
- Cracked or shattered glass from road debris, vandalism, or parking lot impacts
- Delamination or silvering loss—the reflective coating peels away, creating dark spots or haze
- Heater failure—mirror stays fogged or iced over even when defrost is active
- Loose or rattling glass—backing adhesive has failed, glass moves inside the housing
- Water intrusion behind the glass—causes further delamination and corrosion
Any of these conditions compromise rear and side visibility, increasing blind-spot risk and failing to meet safety standards in many jurisdictions.

How to Install APDTY 67490 Mirror Glass
Replacing side mirror glass is a straightforward repair most DIYers can complete in 15–30 minutes per side. General installation steps:
- Disconnect the battery negative terminal to prevent electrical shorts.
- Remove the old glass: Carefully pry or unclip the damaged glass from the mirror housing. Some designs use clips; others use adhesive. Wear gloves and safety glasses to avoid cuts.
- Disconnect the heater plug if accessible, or note wire routing for reconnection.
- Clean the backing surface inside the housing to ensure good adhesion.
- Connect the heater connector on the new APDTY 67490 assembly.
- Align and press the new glass into place, ensuring clips engage or adhesive bonds fully. Follow any torque or pressure specs in your service manual.
- Reconnect the battery and test mirror adjustment and heater function.
Always consult your vehicle's factory service manual for model-specific disassembly procedures, clip locations, and electrical connector details. If you are uncomfortable working near electrical components, have the repair performed by a qualified technician.
Why Replace Only the Glass Instead of the Whole Assembly?
Replacing just the mirror glass offers several advantages:
- Cost savings: Glass assemblies are typically a fraction of the cost of a complete powered, heated mirror housing.
- Faster repair: No need to remove door panels, disconnect multiple harnesses, or repaint match.
- Retains OE housing: Your original mirror motors, adjusters, and trim stay intact.
- Environmentally friendly: Reduces waste by reusing functional components.
This approach is ideal when only the glass is damaged and the housing, motors, and heater circuits remain operational.
Frequently asked questions
Does APDTY 67490 fit non-Hybrid 2006-2007 Accord models?
No. The verified fitment data specifies this part is compatible with 2006-2007 Honda Accord Hybrid submodels only. Standard gasoline Accord variants may require a different mirror glass. Always verify fitment via the live compatibility chart or original OE part number.
Is the heater element included and pre-wired?
Yes. APDTY 67490 includes the plastic backing plate with an integrated heated element. The heater connector is pre-attached and plugs into your vehicle's existing mirror harness—no splicing required on correct applications.
Can I install this myself, or do I need a mechanic?
Most DIYers with basic hand tools can replace mirror glass in 15–30 minutes. The job involves carefully removing the old glass, connecting the heater plug, and clipping or adhering the new assembly in place. Consult your service manual for model-specific steps.
What if my mirror motor or housing is also damaged?
APDTY 67490 replaces only the glass and backing plate. If the mirror housing, adjustment motor, or mounting bracket is broken, you will need a complete mirror assembly. This glass is designed for situations where only the reflective surface is compromised.
