Replacement of External Wing Mirror

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf IV, MK 4, Golf 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Side mirror

The mirror of the external wing mirror is simply clipped onto the support: to remove it, simply pull it forward to disengage it, possibly using a screwdriver to lever it sideways. Once disengaged, disconnect the wires of the demisting system and completely remove the mirror. To install the new one, first connect the demisting system cables, align the fixing tabs located behind the mirror with the support and clip it in place.
