Replacement of the exterior rearview mirror on Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 MK 3, 8V - Years 2012-2019
Part: Side mirror

Using the mirror adjustment buttons, turn the affected rearview mirror totally towards the vehicle, so that you can slip your fingers (or a plastic wedge) behind the outside and extract it without damaging the attachments. Disconnect the rear heating cables and you're done. If it is only the glass that you need to replace, you have already seen how to do it, but if you also have to remove the cap in the video, the whole procedure is disassembled, starting with the disassembly of the adjustment motor. Returning instead to the mirror, to mount it simply connect the cables and push it into place until it fits.

How to Remove the Grille on a Ford Ranger

In this video, learn how to remove the grille located on the front bumper of a Ford Ranger. Prepare to take off the plastic grille: use a socket spanner to unscrew the fasteners securing the grille (located on the inside of the bumper). With a plastic lever, pry between the grille and the bumper until it disengages from its housing. Once the grille is free, remove it from the bumper and fit a new one. Refit the grille onto the car's bumper by pressing it into place and screw the fasteners back in. Check that all parts are correctly mounted.
