Replacing the Side Mirror Assembly on BMW E46

Model: BMW Serie 3 E46 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Side mirror

Let's replace the outside mirror on a BMW 3 Series. Pry between the perimeter of the mirror frame and the mirror glass. Continue to pry until the glass detaches from the mirror (disconnect the power cable). Once disassembled, install the new mirror, ensuring the plastic clips snap into the mirror supports. Check that the glass is securely locked in the mirror to avoid losing it while driving. Adjust the mirror after installation.
