Video tutorial

In this video, we can see how to change the mirror glass of a Mercedes E-Class W124 version. First, we completely rotate the mirror glass inward; in the space created outward, we use a plastic spatula to pry off the damaged mirror, being careful to avoid further breaking it. Now we disconnect the electrical connector located at the back and treat it with a specific product before reconnecting the new mirror, which we could find, for example, on eBay with the code 395198260039 for the price of 30.21 euros, with free shipping (check the exact compatibility of the part).

Gently press on the fitting, and the job is done.
