Replacing the external wing mirror involves removing the door panel. For safety, start by disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery.

Next, carefully remove the door panel, taking care to detach any internal wiring. Behind the plastic cover, you will find three securing screws for the mirror that need to be removed.

Disconnect the wire by acting on the connector and remove the mirror. Refit the new mirror by reversing the previous steps.

Ensure the perfect positioning of the three supports in their respective housings. Check that the adjustment mechanism still functions correctly.
