Replacing the side mirror of your car is simpler than you might expect. Once you purchase the new mirror, proceed to remove the old one. For external mirrors, always use a screwdriver, but not to unscrew: in this case, apply pressure from below on the glass, trying to insert the screwdriver between the glass and the outer cover, prying carefully to avoid damaging anything.

To install the interior rearview mirror, first clean the mount with any cleaner to remove dust and any residue. Once done, position the new mirror inside the mount and, using a screwdriver, tighten the previously removed screw clockwise.
