Replacement of External Wing Mirror

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

Replacing the external wing mirror is very simple as the mirror is secured to the support with clips; simply lever behind the mirror to release it and pull it away enough to disconnect the demisting wires. Then bring the new mirror (easily available in the aftermarket) closer, connect the wires to the respective pins, and align the fixing clips to the support to press the mirror until they click into place. An alternative solution is to shape a piece of mirror and glue it onto the broken one with silicone.
