Change the glass mirror of an external rearview mirror

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Side mirror

Video tutorial

This nice youtuber. She guides us in changing the mirror glass of the external rearview mirror of a car. We do not know which car it is, but basically the method is the same for all cars.

In conclusion, she asks for advice from those who are able to give it, and we feel able to recommend, before removing the mirror glass, to adjust it from the inside to the maximum possible angle, so that it is possible to insert fingers (or a plastic spatula) behind the glass/mirror, and thus facilitate the operation as much as possible.

We also consider ourselves able to advise against the final "hammer blow" for fixing the glass, but in general the operation can be considered completed.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
