To remove the external rear-view mirror, you first need to take off the door panel: start by unscrewing the screws along the bottom edge of the panel; remove the trim behind the opening lever and the one inside the handle grip to unscrew the other screws underneath; pry along the edges to release the clips and remove the panel, disconnecting the window lift connector, the tweeter connector, and the lock cable.

Remove the plastic cover located just behind the mirror, take off the adhesive caps to access the fixing pins, disconnect the electric adjustment connector of the mirror itself, and unscrew the fixing pins to complete the removal.

Then proceed in reverse for installation.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
