Installation recommendations

Generally/typically for the replacement of an exterior electric rearview mirror, the exact procedure may vary depending on the specific car design and equipment. Below is a practical general procedure for this type of part.

1) Before assembly

• Check if the left side, mirror shape, connector type and mount match.
• Compare with the old part the presence of functions: electric control, electric folding and heating.
• Check the condition of the cover, glass, mirror joint and wiring for cracks, tears or other damage.
• For the used part, check the cleanliness of the contacts and possible signs of oxidation.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• Set of common hand tools
• Screwdrivers or bits according to the type of connecting material
• Plastic pry bar for panel removal
• Contact cleaner
• Clean cloth
• Protective gloves

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the ignition.
2. It is generally recommended to disconnect the battery, especially if you will be disconnecting the electrical connectors.
3. Remove the inner cover or trim in the mirror mount area to gain access to the connector and mount.
4. Carefully disconnect the electrical connector of the original mirror.
5. Loosen the fasteners of the old mirror and hold the part securely so that it does not fall during removal.
6. Remove the original mirror and compare it to the new piece by shape, fit and connectors.
7. Clean the mounting surface and check that there are no dirt or damaged parts left at the mounting point.
8. Place the new left mirror in the correct position and check that it is seated correctly on the mounting points.
9. Mount and evenly tighten the fasteners without unnecessary material switching.
10. Connect the electrical connector and verify that the connection is tight and properly seated.
11. Reinstall all covers and trim.
12. Connect the battery and perform a basic functional check.
• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
  • Test the electric mirror adjustment in all directions.
  • Verify the electric folding function if the car is equipped with this function.
  • Check the heating function according to the vehicle’s normal operating mode.
  • Check whether the mirror does not rattle, does not move and is firmly held in the holder when driving.
  • After a short test drive, recheck the stability of the attachment and the correct seating of the covers.

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

  • Swapping left and right parts – always check the side and shape of the mirror before mounting.
  • Connector or equipment mismatch – compare the number of functions and connection design with the old piece.
  • Damage to plastic lining – use a suitable plastic pry bar and do not use force.
  • Poorly seated connector – after plugging in, lightly check that it holds and is not loose.
  • Insufficient seat of the mirror – check the correct position and fit before final tightening.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Damage while parking, contact with an obstacle or impact from another vehicle.
  • Crack or loosening of the folding mechanism due to wear.
  • Faulty electrical control or heating due to humidity, oxidation of contacts or damaged wiring.
  • Damage to the cover or glass due to vandalism, vibration or long-term use.
