Replacing the External Mirror Glass

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Side mirror

Video tutorial

Need to replace the mirror glass if damaged? Here’s how to do it. Pry between the edge of the mirror frame and the mirror glass itself (use a plastic lever). Keep prying until the glass detaches from the mirror (disconnect the power cable); this is a delicate operation as the glass or the mirror itself could break.

Remove the mirror cover if you need to replace it. Fit the new glass onto the base of the mirror (ensure the plastic clips engage properly in the mirror supports).
