Here’s how to replace the exterior rear-view mirror (right side) on a Ford Focus: use a lever to remove the internal trim of the mirror (there are plastic clips) and unscrew the securing bolts with a suitable socket wrench. Once the securing bolts are removed, take out the mirror along with the electric adjustment cables from the car door (remove it from the outside).

For reassembly: refit the mirror with the bolts, connect the adjustment cables, and replace the plastic trim onto the door panel. Finally, test the mirror to ensure it functions correctly.
