Fitting Wingmirror

[Zoe20]

hi all

I am hoping someone can help me in detail on how to remove and fit the passenger wingwirror. i have a R Reg 2.0i xantia, and some kids tried to break in last night, when they could not get in they broke the wing mirror, this are electric mirror. :angry: i have manage to get one from the breakers, but i know want to reck the door putting it on ( did that to the other one :huh: ) the main thing is taking the door interior off with out damaging it, and where the ultrasonic sensor is, to get to the 2 troque screws. :)

Hi There.

 

You don't have to take the door trim panel off, only the small triangular plastic cover panel on the door, where the mirror is. Prise it off gently and the screws that hold the mirror on wil be seen. The multi plug for the wiring is there too and tucks out of the way when you refit the new one.

 

Cheers. Hope this helps. :huh:

hi colin

 

thanks for that advice, but after yesterday getting the new mirror off the exact same car as mine, the panel does need to come off, as the wiring is under the panel, and that triangle where the sensor is goes roughly 2inches down.

I have manage to get a hanyes manual, and in it says something about disconnect the battery after you have put the mirror down about half way. would i really need to disconnect it?

 

thanks
