Temporary solution for the side mirror of a Toyota Aygo

Model: Toyota Aygo MK 1, Ab10 - Years 2005-2014
Part: Side mirror

In this video, we can see what to do if the adjustable mirror of our Toyota Aygo (but the same method is also valid for Peugeot 107 and Citroen C1) suddenly stops working while we are traveling and we have no way to have it repaired. We have an emergency solution, which of course should only be temporary, but it can solve the immediate problem. So, we take something that can move the mirror inward and then put a small screw or nail inserted into the mirror's body, adjusting it by hand from the inside, so that we can see as best as possible. We cover the nail with tape to avoid scratching the mirror glass and continue our journey.
