Installation recommendations
Generally/typically, exterior rearview mirror replacement varies by trim and door design; the exact procedure depends on the specific design of the car.
1) Before assembly (checks of the used part, what to compare with the old part)
- Check that it is a left mirror and that codes 96806498XT / 8149ZG match.
- Compare the connector: 7 PIN (5+2) – the number of pins and the shape must fit the harness in the door.
- Verify that the mirror has the required functions: electric control and heating.
- Visually check the condition of the shell, mounts and cabling (cracks, broken mounts, damaged insulation).
2) Necessary tools and materials (in general, without specific extra parts)
- Normal set of screwdrivers and bits, or torx according to design
- Plastic crowbar for removing upholstery
- Clean cloth or contact cleaner (as needed)
- Protective gloves
3) Step-by-step assembly procedure
- Turn off the ignition and secure the vehicle against movement.
- To access the mirror mount, remove the inner cover/part of the upholstery in the mirror area (use a plastic pry bar to avoid damaging the parts).
- Locate the mirror electrical connector and carefully disconnect it (do not pull on the cables).
- Loosen the mirror fasteners (nuts/bolts depending on design) and hold the mirror from the outside to prevent it from falling.
- Remove the old mirror and check the contact surfaces (dirt, gasket residues, damage).
- Place the new mirror in the correct position and check for proper seating.
- Install the fasteners and tighten evenly so that the mirror fits well and does not stress the plastic.
- Connect the connector and verify that it is secure and that the wiring is not pinched.
- Before fully folding the upholstery, briefly switch on the ignition and test the functions (mirror adjustment, heating).
- Refit the covers/upholstery and check that everything fits properly.
-
4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
- Verify smooth operation of electrical settings in all directions.
- Check the function of the heater (typically manifested by gradual demisting/defrosting).
- Check whether the mirror is firmly held and does not vibrate while driving.
5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them
- Connector/pinning swap: always compare 7 PIN (5+2) and part codes before assembly.
- Damage to upholstery or fasteners: use a plastic pry bar and proceed patiently.
- Pinched wiring harness: check the wiring before tightening and folding the covers.
- Uneven tightening: tighten gradually and evenly so that the mirror fits correctly.
Reasons why the part is damaged
- Impacts and collisions (parking, narrow passages, contact with another vehicle or an obstacle).
- Damage to the folding/holding mechanism due to violent tipping or vibration.
- Electrical fault (damaged wiring in the door, oxidized connectors, broken wires).
- Wear of heating and contacts due to age, humidity and frequent use.
- Damage to the cover and paintwork from UV radiation, chemicals from dishwashers or mechanical abrasion.
