Removing the External Rearview Mirror for Mirror Replacement

Model: Mercedes Classe C W202 - Years 1993-2000
Part: Side mirror

Replacing the mirror of the external rearview mirror involves removing it. This operation requires a screwdriver to unscrew the screws located behind the mirror. Bend the mirror to pull it outward with your hands to detach it from the plastic mounting supports. Remove the wire connected by acting on the connector and take out the mirror. By releasing the retaining spring, replace the broken glass and reassemble the mirror by following the reverse steps. Ensure the perfect positioning of the three supports in their respective housings. Check that the adjustment mechanism still functions properly.
