How to Replace the Side Mirror on a BMW 3 Series?

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

To replace the side mirror on a BMW 3 Series, you need to remove the trim along the entire panel to completely take off the door panel. This will allow you to remove the inner panel by disconnecting all the connectors underneath, including the one connected to the mirror. Then, by unscrewing the bolts near the mirror, you can slide it out from the outside to replace it with a new one. After installation, reattach all the removed components.
