How to Remove the Mirror from a Golf 7

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

Let's see how to remove the external mirror from a Golf 7. Using a plastic-coated lever, pry between the perimeter of the mirror frame and the mirror itself. Leverage until the glass detaches from the mirror (disconnect the power cable); this operation is very delicate as the glass may break. Press on the locking clips to disconnect the mirror cover, and replace the damaged part with the new one. Be careful to ensure the plastic snap clips engage in the mirror supports.
