How to Dismantle the Mirror on Opel Astra

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Side mirror

Dismantling the external rear-view mirror of the Opel Astra? Here’s how to remove the part. Use a lever to detach the internal trim of the mirror (there are plastic clips) and undo the securing bolts with a suitable socket spanner. Once the securing bolts are removed, take out the mirror along with the electrical cables from the car door. Secure the new mirror with the bolts (hold the mirror in place with your hand), connect the adjustment cables, and refit the plastic trim into the door panel. Adjust the mirror using the dedicated buttons.
