How to Remove the Mirror Glass on a Volkswagen Golf 6

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Side mirror

Learn how to remove the mirror glass on a Volkswagen Golf 6: Using a plastic or rubber spatula, pry between the edge of the mirror frame and the mirror glass itself. Pry 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. Ensure the plastic snap clips engage in the mirror supports.
