In this video, see how to change the indicators on the mirrors of a Volkswagen Golf MK8 by installing dynamic LED ones. You can find the new parts on AliExpress, code 1005004400799938, priced at £17.69 per pair with free delivery.

For tools, you will need a small flathead screwdriver. Remove the cap from the mirror by positioning the mirror glass so that it protrudes outward at the top. This will reveal two tabs, one on each side, which can be pressed with a flathead screwdriver to release the cap from its housing.

Now, remove the indicator: disconnect the electrical connector and the blind spot indicator plug, being careful not to confuse them when reassembling. Unscrew the two screws holding the indicator and remove the retaining tab at the bottom.

You can now take it out, starting from the side closest to the vehicle and then gently removing it from the far side. Insert the new indicator in reverse order and secure it. Connect the plugs, and before replacing the cap, check that the indicators function correctly.
