Replacing the External Wing Mirror Glass

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

Replacing the glass of the external wing mirror is very simple to execute as it is simply clipped onto the support: it is sufficient to lever it off from the back to detach it, then disconnect the wires of the demisting system and proceed in reverse for the installation of the new one (easily available in the aftermarket); then reconnect the wires of the demisting system, align the fixing tabs with the support and press until it clicks into place, taking care not to damage them and not to catch the wires.
