Installation recommendations

Generally/typically for replacing a complete electric rearview mirror (the exact procedure may vary depending on the specific car design and equipment):

1) Before assembly

• Compare with the old part: side (right/passenger), foot shape, mounting, connector/wiring and equipment (electric control, folding, heating, temperature sensor).
• Check the condition of the mirror and cover: cracks, broken handles, play in the joint, condition of the connector and pins.
• Expect that the paintwork is slightly scratched – consider refinishing or varnishing as desired for the look.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• Basic set of bits/keys and ratchet (depending on the type of fastener)
• Plastic pry bar for removing upholstery/door covers
• Contact cleaner (as needed), cloth
• Insulating tape / cable ties to secure cabling (as needed)

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Turn off the ignition and disconnect the battery (recommended due to the electrical equipment in the doors).
2. Dismantle the inner cover in the mirror mounting area (typically the triangular cover at the A-pillar) so as not to damage the mounts.
3. If necessary to access the connector, release the relevant part of the door trim (careful not to break the clips).
4. Disconnect the mirror electrical connector and check for damaged pins or leaks.
5. Secure the wiring so that it does not fall into the door and is not damaged during handling.
6. Loosen the mirror mounting screws/nuts and hold the mirror from the outside to prevent it from falling off and damaging the paintwork.
7. Remove the old mirror from the door and clean the landing area.
8. Place the new mirror in the correct position, route the wiring through the passage and hold the mirror.
9. Tighten the fasteners evenly (without over-tightening to avoid damaging the foot/grips).
10. Connect the connector and store the wiring so that it does not rub or interfere with the door mechanisms.
11. Refit the covers/upholstery and check that all clips are properly seated.
12. Connect the battery.

• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification

  • Check the electric adjustment of the mirrors, electric folding and heating (depending on the car equipment).
  • Check the stability of the mirror when the door is closed and when driving (vibration, play in the joint).
  • After a short drive, check again that the mirror is firmly in place and that nothing resonates.

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Swap sides (right/left) → always compare the shape of the foot and the orientation of the connector.
  • Damage to upholstery clips → use a plastic pry bar and proceed one by one.
  • Pinched or poorly routed wiring → before assembly, check the grommets and harness placement.
  • Not tightened/unevenly tightened mounting → tighten evenly and check fit.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Mechanical damage during parking (contact with another car, pillar, wall).
  • Mirror impact or capture when passing through a narrow place.
  • Wear of the folding mechanism and play in the joint due to frequent use.
  • Water ingress and subsequent corrosion of contacts/connectors, possibly electrical control failure.
  • Damage to the cover and paint from normal use (abrasions, scratches) – this piece has slightly scratched paint.
