To replace the internal rear-view mirror on a Mini, no tools are required for removal. Simply grasp the mirror and rotate it clockwise.

After it has been rotated, pull it downwards to disengage its mounting mechanism. Once the old mirror is removed, insert the new one by positioning it and rotating it counter-clockwise.

At this point, push it upwards to secure it in its housing. Once the mirror is secured, adjust it to your preference.

Location of the Jack and Spare Wheel of the Toyota Yaris

In the unfortunate event that one of the wheels of the Toyota Yaris is punctured, it is useful to know the location of the lifting jack, the spare wheel, the tool to operate the jack, and to unscrew the wheel bolts. The jack is located under the driver's seat, secured to a bracket and protected by a plastic cover, which you can remove by acting on the fixing clips. The spare wheel is located under the floor panel of the boot, secured to the floor by a threaded plastic flange, alongside which you will find the tool, consisting of a bent bar, which is used to operate the jack on one side and to remove the wheel on the other.
