Replacing the External Mirror on Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Side mirror

Today, you will learn two very simple tasks: replacing the glass of the external rear-view mirror and the lower protective cover. To remove the glass, you can simply try to detach it by hand, working gently and releasing the clips until it is completely removed. Disconnect the wires, and you're done. Now, you can work on the clips of the lower cover: to do this, push on those tabs from inside the housing, as shown in the video, using a small flathead screwdriver. Good luck!

This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
