The glass inside the housing of the external wing mirror is secured to the support, allowing for adjustment via plastic clips: in case of breakage, it is possible to replace just this element rather than the entire mirror, with the option to source this replacement part from the aftermarket.

To detach the glass, simply rotate it to move the outer edge outward and then pull it to release; proceed in reverse to install it, first inserting the clip from the inner side and then engaging the one from the outer side.
