How to Remove the External Mirror Cover on Mini Countryman

Model: Mini Mini Countryman1, R60 - Years 2010-2016
Part: Side mirror

Removing the cover of the external rear-view mirror is very simple as it is simply clipped in place with plastic tabs along the edge; start by applying some tape (or a couple of layers of masking tape) on both the edge of the cover and the plastic frame to protect it from any scratches that the screwdriver tip might cause; then insert the tip of a screwdriver into the gap between the cover and the mirror frame and lever to unclip the fixing tabs.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14.
