Here is one way on eBay. Looke like it would be extremely easy. If you change whole housing also, it's not that hard either. Remove door panel, then inside you'll find three nuts holding housing on. Remove and slide out. Disconnect wires if powered mirror. Install opposite.

Yeah like 28this said....it's easier (& probably cheaper) to just replace the whole mirror with a used one instead of replacing the glass only

Replacing the mirror is super easy though!
On my '04 Dakota (when I had it)...I swapped from the big (towing) mirrors to the little mirrors in like 5 minutes....SUPER SUPER easy to do!

What do you mean no replacement mirror only, without buying the whole assembly? I gave you an ebay link in a earlier post that had one for your truck. Look at my last post before this one and click on the word eBay.
