How to replace the wing mirror in Mini Cooper?

Model: Mini Mini R52, R50, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Side mirror

In this tutorial we can see how to replace the wing mirror on a Mini Cooper, an extremely simple and fast operation. To do this, we'll need a 5mm hex key and a flat-blade screwdriver. First of all let's position ourselves in front of the mirror in question, then close it completely and unscrew the two bolts just released. We then repeat the operation for the opposite extreme, separate the mirror from the door and disconnect the regulator connector. To fit the spare part, simply follow the reverse procedure exactly.
