Changing the rear-view mirror of your car is a fairly simple operation even if you are not a mechanic or bodywork specialist; you just need a bit of patience, a screwdriver, and some Torx keys. Carefully remove the protective panel inside the car where the retaining screws will be located underneath.

The panel is clipped in place. Once the old mirror is removed, you can proceed to insert the new one, ensuring it is correctly positioned in its seat, checking that the car's seal perfectly covers the sides of the mirror.

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.
