Vauxhall Corsa - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Repainting the mirror caps of the Opel Corsa.

In order to remove the cover of the external rearview mirror, the first thing to do is to adjust the mirror (meaning the glass) turned inward, so that you can fit your fingers or a small screwdriver and remove it from its housing. There are three fittings for the cover, one at the bottom, one at the top, and one on the side. Now we need to sand the two covers to remove the previous paint and apply a coat of plastic primer. Let it dry and apply the first coat of glossy black paint; let it dry completely and apply the second coat as well. Then apply a coat of clear polish. We can then reassemble the covers in their place.
