Replacement of External Wing Mirror Glass

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Side mirror

The glass of the external wing mirror is simply clipped onto its support using thin metal tabs. To replace it, adjust the mirror fully inwards to create enough space to insert a screwdriver and release the tabs; once the old glass is removed, insert the new one, aligning the fixing tabs correctly and pressing evenly with both hands until it clicks into place. An alternative, quicker and more economical solution is to make a cardboard template of the glass, have a piece cut by a glazier, and glue it with silicone onto the broken one.
