Removing the Exterior Mirror on an Opel Zafira

Model: Vauxhall Zafira Zafira A, MK 1, T98 - Years 1999-2005
Part: Side mirror

This tutorial shows how to remove the exterior mirror on an Opel Zafira. Use a plastic lever to pry between the perimeter of the mirror frame and the mirror glass. Pry until the mirror detaches from the housing (disconnect the power cable); this is a delicate operation as the mirror may break. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws to detach the mirror cover (if it needs replacing); replace the damaged part with a new one. Ensure the plastic clips snap into place on the mirror supports.
