How do i get the old ones off? (Got black ones instead of silver for my black FR)

Ended up breaking one of the mirrors :whistle: Costing me a whopping £5 to get a new mirror!

anyways any help appreciated!
 
push the wing mirror in and there will be a piece of the cover that you can get your fingers under (it will be clear once you push in the wing mirror).

just gently pull the cover off, its held in with 4 clips. new one pops in :D
 
your actually supposed to take the glass out to do this. just get your fingers behind the glass & gently lever it off. (it only clips on) then there are clips inside holding the covers on, squeeze them together with pliers or similar. if you just rip the covers off the clips are prone to breaking. (got told this by the bodyshop i had my mirrors colour coded at the other week & my local seat dealer also uses him so he knows what hes on with)

First time I've heard that... Everyone else just pulls them off no problem :happy:
 
Cheers for help, @ smithy i tried taking the one mirror glass off and failed by breaking the glass lol but il try the other technique seeming as iv already broken it!
