How to Replace the Mirror Glass on a VW Passat

Model: Volkswagen Passat B7 - Years 2010-2014
Part: Side mirror

How do you remove the mirror glass from a Volkswagen Passat's wing mirror? Follow this guide: using a plastic or rubber lever, pry between the edge of the mirror frame and the glass. Apply leverage until the glass detaches from the mirror; this is a delicate operation as the glass or the mirror itself may break. Once the damaged mirror glass is removed, disconnect the power connector for the glass, pressing on the locking clips to detach the mirror cover. Finally, replace the damaged part with the new one, ensuring the plastic clips snap into the mirror supports.
