The mirror cap on a Seat Leon Cupra is simply clipped onto the external rear-view mirror. To remove it, apply gentle force, sliding it towards the door, and then pull it towards you. This will disengage the internal fixing clips.

At this point, simply remove it and then take it away completely. Once you have completed this step, you will have successfully removed it, allowing you to repaint the removed mirror cap or replace it.
