How to remove the outer cover of the mirror of an Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Side mirror

Removing the cover of the external rearview mirror of an Audi A3 vehicle is a simple and quick operation that can be easily done independently, also thanks to our short video tutorial. To perform this operation, we first need to remove the mirror, using a plastic lever. After removing the mirror, we proceed to remove the cover by unscrewing the internal clips, and once the cover is removed, you can proceed with the internal maintenance of the mirror. The assembly of the mirror follows the same procedure but done in reverse. During the removal of the cover, do not apply too much force as you could break it.
