Learn how to remove the cover of a Seat Leon. Use your hands to pull off the cover (use a plastic or metal lever for assistance), leverage between the mirror cover and the mirror itself (pull the plastic towards you). Apply pressure until the cover detaches from the mirror (this operation is very delicate as it may break).

Once the piece is removed, you can replace it with a new one. Refit the new mirror cover by inserting it into the mirror.

Finally, check the correct fitting of the cover.
