Mirror cover
« on: 15 October 2008, 14:48 »
I noticed when I was cleaning my car that the mirror cover seems abit loose dont think its on properly how do you get it off? I know theres a couple of sscrews underneath but wasnt sure how it came off after I took them out any ideas?

i have a few

tilt the glass forward towards you and get your fingers inbehind and pull to release the glass - two clips either side

where you've undone the screws there is a plastic peg - use a flat headed screwdriver to remove

then use the same screwdriver to release the bottom bit - wedge it in between the cover and the plastic bottom and lever - this releases the bottom

mirror cover should just pull off after that (not sure as didn't go that far!)
