To remove the external rear-view mirror, first remove the door panel as the electric adjustment cable for the mirror passes through the panel to reach the switch near the handle. Proceed by removing the panel, taking out the caps inside the handle and the opening lever to unscrew the mounting screws and release the pressure clips along the edges. At this point, disconnect the mirror cable, remove the plastic cover behind the mirror, and unscrew the relevant mounting bolts to complete the removal.
