Removing the Side Mirror of the BMW Z4

Model: BMW Z4 E85, E86 - Years 2002-2008
Part: Side mirror

Let's replace the exterior mirror of a BMW Z4. Pry between the perimeter of the mirror frame and the mirror glass. Continue prying until the glass separates from the mirror (disconnect the power cable). After removal, install the new mirror, ensuring the plastic clips snap into the mirror supports (connect the electrical terminals to the mirror). After adjustment, check that the glass is securely locked in the mirror to avoid losing it on the road.
