Model: Mercedes Classe A W168 - Years 1997-2004
Part: Side mirror

Replacing the mirror is a quick operation that anyone with basic skills can handle. It is also very similar for many models on the market, even from different brands. This guide covers the removal/replacement of a left side mirror for the Mercedes A-Class. First, lower the window completely. Using a plastic trim tool, remove the cover that hides the mounting screws. Disconnect the electrical connector for the mirror adjustment/defroster. Remove the three screws (hexagonal, 10mm head). As you remove the last screw, be careful to support the mirror with one hand. Remove it and reinstall the replacement by following the steps in reverse order.
